Hey! I am curious, especially with older coins how you can tell whether or not the mint has doubled or if it appears that way due to natural wearing of the coin. I still have trouble identifying some of the doubling in coins unless it is completely obvious where it would smack me in the face LOL

I did check varietyvista.com which I saw referenced in a post from a few years ago.

What we see here is circulation flattening. lots of wear.

Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on

OK, that's what I was wondering as it seems so flat in areas, almost like it's not there anymore. Others seem "bubbled" attached to another letter which confuses me as well.
