tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6129 Posts	Posted Yesterday 11:15 pm When it comes to double struck coins it's all about eye appeal. Even with the spot of corrosion I find this one to have well above average appeal and is quite different from most double struck coins. 1950 Lincoln Wheat cent mint error - doubled struck both strikes off center Report this Post to the Staff

Roller42 Valued Member United States 112 Posts	Posted Today 7H 21M ago A beauty! Isn't that known as a saddle strike? Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6129 Posts	Posted Today 7H 18M ago A saddle strike is a coin struck twice at the same time by two different adjacent dies. I'm not totally familiar with the set up from this era but just doesn't seem like a saddle strike from what I am seeing. Report this Post to the Staff
