Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10049 Posts	Posted 04/26/2011 9:01 pm Here Is a pic of the date on a 1945-S Mercury dime. The numbers are doubled. This is not in Cherrypickers'. I am guessing this is an example of "strike doubling?" http://www.imagebam.com/image/4e2c34129708566 Are there people who collect these or does this not affect the value at all? Great coin either way! How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

Maineman750 Pillar of the Community United States 3592 Posts	Posted 04/27/2011 5:57 pm There are collectors on ebay...I'm a Lincoln Cent guy and I've watched machine doubled pennies bring $12 to $31 for nice examples. Yours is not really as extreme as what I'm refering to though. Report this Post to the Staff

arsave Valued Member United States 225 Posts	Posted 05/01/2011 9:06 pm The low and flat doubling is the way you can find these Strike Doubling (or Machine Doubling). It sounds like you are having fun. Check my variety resoure pages and you will find images of a bunch or the Mercury dime Varieties. Report this Post to the Staff
