I always check all 1992, 1995 and 1998-2000 pennies. I have found a few WAM's but never a double die.  |

Great find! Looks to be in great condition. I've found three of these over the last five years; one about a year ago, and the other two about three years ago...three days apart! After that I thought they were going to be an easy find. Not so!

Nice find! I moved your topic to the 'Modern US Variety & Error Coins' forum. I think what you found is more important than where you found it.  |

Pocketchange 95 doesn't have a WAM its a 96 (supposedly). Good find though I found 2 so far. |

IC Double I was just referring to 1995 because it is known for double dies. 1998-2000 have WAM's and 1992 has CAM's. Thanks for the reply though. |

Guys listen to this. I have a friend who is a coin dealer in the Allentown pa. area. She told me that she knew someone who found a whole case these of these in 1995. When they first came out they were going for several hundred dollars a piece. He was able to buy his house with that case!

For such a strong doubled die, it's actually a pretty common one. It's actually available pretty regularly in high grade - one just sold on Teletrade for $100 at the ridiculous grade of MS68.
