cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 11/20/2013 12:48 am I always check my change for whatever type of varieties or errors I can find. I have found 3 nice Doubled Die coins as of late. Two 2102 Loonies...One is the security version with a basically complete Doubled Obverse. The second is a 2012 Grey Cup Loonie with nice doubling on the reverse. The third coin is a 2012 Security Toonie with a doubled Obverse. I will post pics of the First Loonie here. THis is the security version. Have a look. There are quite a few pics. Full OBV & REV pic: These next shots show doubling of the motto. Notice the notching: Nice doubling of the necklace and bottom of bust: The outside of the hair of the bust: Ear and Earring as well as Hair from around the ear and face: The reverse is normal. It is my first major Doubling I have found on a loonie that is not just common MDD. Please feel free to comment. I will post the next coin in a bit. Report this Post to the Staff

cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 11/20/2013 02:39 am I have found 2 x 2012 Loonies with the OBV doubling. Not sure why I said "notice the notching" LOL! I was thinking of the other coin. I do agree with the hub doubling. Report this Post to the Staff

windychimes Valued Member Canada 250 Posts	Posted 11/20/2013 9:41 pm Fantastic pictures, thanks for posting them. And I never bothered looking at toonies and loonies, either, but I'll keep a lookout now. Thanks for the info. Report this Post to the Staff
