coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/09/2020 4:29 pm I see the areas in question, but can't see what is happening. If the areas are incuse, then they are coin damage. If they are raised, a closer view would be helpful to see what your seeing. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/10/2020 9:49 pm Well these devices all look normal. In order for a coin to be a doubled die, the devices end to be enlarged in size. The more they are enlarged and the more the spread, the more interest in them. Looking at V.V for doubled dies that year, shows none: http://www.varietyvista.com/09b%20W...Listings.htm Pretty sparse after 1970. Wexler shows one DDR for that year: http://doubleddie.com/2019705.html But not much doubling going on that year/mint Report this Post to the Staff

HappyMedium New Member United States 27 Posts	Posted 03/11/2020 01:49 am You weighed, weighed,and weighed again? Is it possible it could have gotten a second Clad layer? I think that would add the appropriate weight. I'm not very experienced so you should probably wait for somebody else's opinion before you get too excited that you might have something.

Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5240 Posts	Posted 03/11/2020 06:44 am It may be a slightly heavy planchet. Within tolerance I believe. I have a1943 P steel cent that weighs 3.0 grams. Sometimes some planchet are rolled a little thicker than others. Report this Post to the Staff
