1976 Ike Dollar DDR - Any Value?

Faint MD.



to the CCF!

Wow!. I just clicked on this " Machine Doubling" link. I have lots to learn......
So nothing special here.
Thanks again.

I'm sorry if I've wasted anyone's time looking at this post, as I really am a novice at numismatics. As I mentioned in my first post, I have "accumulated" coins and currency for the past 40 years or so. Just keeping coins and notes I thought looked different or somehow odd. I never really tried to find out if they were anything rare or valuable, as other priorities in life prevented my research (education!). To tell you how dumb I am, until 20 minutes ago, I thought "Double Die" was the same as a "Double Strike". I never realized Double Die's were actually an error to the DIE. I just figured that there were so many 'like' double die coins out there (like the 1955 LMC) that there must have been a misalignment or misadjusted press that produced a bunch of messed up coins, and the mint couldn't find and destroy them all. It baffles me that someone at the Mint would/could allow a doubled-die be placed in a minting press for production. I just figured there would be to many quality checks on a die before it ever made it to the minting machines.
I also mentioned in my first post that I am slowly going through three generations of coins and currency 'accumulations' -- Mine, my fathers, and both my grandfathers. I do have several copies of the Red Book, along with a few other publications, but they aren't as valuable as this forum community - and I must admit, learning here is quicker and more convenient -- and I know that sometimes aggerates seasoned collectors who learned the hard way....
Anyway, sorry for the false DDR post here. Hopefully a future new collector will happen upon it and learn something.
I'll probably be posting more silly questions in the near future, so please bear with me.
Once again, thanks.
Tom

Your not wasting our time, This is what we like to do. If nobody posted coins, we would get very bored.

to the CCF This is a great site to learn about errors and varieties.
