This Is Another 1998 Philly Minted Penny That I Belive Is Double Struck.

this is left of the stair case on the 1998 penny 2 that was found.

Sharper pics would help.



to the CCF!

soon I will be posting a few more coins later that I found DDOs,DDR,1999 State Quarter that appears to be an experimental planchet type. and I also found a Wasington State Quarter that was struck by a extreamly broken die,and more.

Going to need much better pics to help,sorry.

So when we see die scrapes that flow behind the devices, this should come into mind.

When polished out it affects the dies like this:





They can be mild:

They can be strong:

But they always flow behind the devices and designs.
