I came across this 1964 Nickel in pocket change today: I see doubling in the date: I've read that there Die Deterioration Doubling is fairly common for coins of this period. I still find myself having problems telling the difference. Any input? Thanks again for allowing me to pick your brains! Susan Report this Post to the Staff

susannyny New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 06/20/2012 9:48 pm Thanks Kefiroth. I had a feeling that based on the date, that would be the case. Now I just need to figure out how to tell the difference between Die Deterioration Doubling versus hub doubling :) Report this Post to the Staff
Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 06/20/2012 11:41 pm Susan It might be a good idea to first look at many different coins that are already known for their die/hub doubling. This will help you to get an image of what that looks like exactly compared to all the other forms of doubling. Which include Machine Doubling etc. There are many types of these by the way. Do some searches on here in the archives for tons of info on the subject. Report this Post to the Staff
