I hate to be the new guy, but how can you tell that's a double die?

Slavac, I threw some arrows on one of the pics to point out some of obvious doubling, have a look.  |

No problem, I'm still learning myself so any little bit of knowledge I can share, I'm glad to do it.

Nice DDO! still a DDO Virgin. If you have any VC that will take care of the vegetation. I want to say EF-40 for grade. |

Bravo, that is a nice one with a significant premium  I would call it EF as well. Once you find that first one, recognizing other doubled dies becomes easier. |

Very nice doubling on "TRUST". Fun coin! I wont grade because I am too new to this stuff, but it looks like the Reverse would grade better than the Obverse, to me atleast.

I'm gonna buy some VC from BadThad's ebay right now... and when I fix this coin up I'll post some more pictures... I had no idea that this doubled die carried that high of a premium... I'm all excited now |

For EF there should not be any flat spots on the cheek and jaw. Hard to tell from the pic. I hope the best. Very nice find!

Did the VC clean any green off of it? Would a wooden toothpick help with the VC to clean it up?
Very nice find!

The contact mark on the cheek would hurt it for grade.

Yeah, that contact mark is really noticeable in hand I don't think it'll hit 40...

If you'd like to throw a grade out there I'd appreciate it.
