Picked up some more stuff... Looking under the scope, I checked for the double date and found it, quite obvious. Also the die crack going up (pointed out by the arrow, and also going across the date)

1869-3-Cent-Nickel,-Double-Date-&-Double-Die?

Looking some more at it, there appears to be a heckuva lot more doubling...


1869-3-Cent-Nickel,-Double-Date-&-Double-Die?



1869-3-Cent-Nickel,-Double-Date-&-Double-Die?

Breen's says nothing about a double die.
Anyone know what this could be?

Thanks!
Jordan

Unfortunately, except for Breen, I have no real resources for 3-cent coins. It looks like true doubling. You could always contact CONECA about it.

I finally got a CherryPickers Guide...
It shows the double date identical to this, but does not show the die crack or the double die obverse.

It shows a DDO for 1866 that I have, and also shows it in the 70, but not this 1869. Big premium for the 1866.

This is one of two DDO I have for the 1869. The other does not have the major double date,
Should this be something to be authenticated? I plan to sell these shortly.
I would say it is a VF on both of them.

Thanks for the help!
