Tdogandmern New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 03/08/2019 10:59 pm Thank you everybody for helping me:) I am just understanding Machine Doubling. I thought because the letters were angled and not shelf like that it was different. I now see on the Wexlers sight that this coin looks an awful lot like the WWHO-001 example! It's so exciting to examine these cents and find such unique charactoristics! Thank you for the compliment on the quality of my pictures! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/09/2019 4:10 pm All the 1968 cents from all three mints look like that on the motto. They replaced the master die in 1969 as it was spreading out and touching the rim devices. All normal for this a and few years before this. Report this Post to the Staff
