Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 01/22/2007 11:08 am Hi Amac If you want opinions on the grade of the coin,, post good pics both obverse and reverse in the coin grading forum . The doubling on the date appears to be deterioration doubling to me,, of course and as always opinions may vary. Metalman Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/22/2007 10:25 pm It's not deterioration doubling, that happens either toward or away from the edge of the design. This is just typical Strike Doubling. Edited by coppercoins 01/22/2007 10:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
amac44 Member United States 3242 Posts	Posted 01/24/2007 06:19 am thanks Metalman & Coppercoins I really didn't need the hole coin graded just the date doubling. I just needed a second pair of eyes to verify what I was seeing thanks for the look and your opinions Amac44 Report this Post to the Staff

Grade specifically refers to evaluating the condition of the coin as a whole. Attribution refers to looking at details of the coin to identify it by die according to known markers and characteristics. Report this Post to the Staff
amac44 Member United States 3242 Posts	Posted 01/25/2007 10:56 am I understand that completely I was just want to know If you were seeing the doubling in the date and if anyone has seen a variety like this before. Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/25/2007 6:17 pm Technically it's not a variety or a die variety. It's Machine Doubling, which is very common on late date Mercury dimes, and brings no premium value. Report this Post to the Staff
