I was looking through a roll of 1962 Frankling half dollars and I think I may have found what I believe to be a doubled die of the E Pluribus Unum. There are about 12 coins from the roll that I think have this but some are weaker and some are stronger. I have been having a hard time taking pictures so I added a couple digital microscope pictures to hopefully make it easier. I have not been able to find any information on this variety if indeed it is a doubled die. Any information, opinions, or comments at all would be greatly appreciated! If you would like more or better pictures, let me know and I will do what I can. Thank you all in advance! Report this Post to the Staff

chubbs New Member United States 23 Posts	Posted 11/04/2011 9:07 pm Thanks for looking! I've been trying hard to take decent pic's without buying an expensive camera. Here are a few more that I tried to take with a magnifier. They are a little shaky but I think they show some better detail than the other pictures. Report this Post to the Staff

jmkendall Pillar of the Community United States 1590 Posts	Posted 11/10/2011 01:38 am I see what you are talking about. Some of those letters in EPU are interesting. Also interesting is the lack of a response! I THINK there is just enough of a question to keep most people from answering. It would take a better photo for me to make a firm decision.
