I would appreciate your input on the grade. I think there is also a small amount of doubling. There is what looks to be a doubling under the nose as well.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5828 Posts	Posted 12/25/2019 01:34 am The doubling is non-valuable Mechanical Doubling (MD), which is very common on 1969s cents. IMHO, because of the slight circulation wear on the high points this would be an Almost Unicirculated brown grade. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff

stclark_98 New Member Canada 2 Posts	Posted 12/26/2019 01:50 am Thanks for all the responses. I'll post a picture of the reverse shortly. I'm new to the forum but have been an avid coins and bills collector for quite a few years. It started as a penny passion (both U.S. and Canadian) but now I seem to collect everything...just don't call me a hoarder. Report this Post to the Staff

If the reverse matches it's certainly a circulated example. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
