Images aren't the best, but it's definitely less desirable than the real McCoy.  |

My images do not show what I am seeing. But an example just like my coin is here: https://www.doubleddie.com/314201.html(Not the first coin pictured, but the second one labeled "Best Variety" I think. |

The die scratch on the letter N of CENT should be visible in these pics, but I don't see it. Can you please confirm if it is visible with the coin in hand? If not, then you definitely don't have a doubled die.

I can't see with my eyes and my loupe I can't tell. I tried to get a picture of the N in CENT on the reverse.  |

Ok yes @bella. I agree that your coin doesn't have that diagnostic--and therefore it isn't that doubled die. Here is the best that I can do with cropping, enlarging, and enhancing your latest pic:  "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

bellatype, cannot tell if you have a doubled die or not with these pics but cannot be 002. The mint mark alignment is off.  -makecents-

That appears to be MD on the date. especially on the MM and the first 9 - the 9 is even reduced on the outer side of the loop.

It looks like a nice example of push doubling.

bellatype, Your pics are a bit out of focus and too much glare. You need to filter your light source. Here is a link on using a phone camers: http://goccf.com/t/422658John1 |
