need some help on this one since I cant seem to get coppercoins to work for me any way I try it..

some looks like flat field dbling. on the ONE CENT but the UNITED shows shelf like but follows the pattern of the letters on both sides like it should. also the corner of the monument..it is from a bank roll so theres a few spots thatmake it look funny like on the you the edge is rolled over the doubling towards the curve.

would love to hear some input.. thanks

Looks like Machine Doubling - pretty significant specimen.

thanks guys.. I noted the shelf edges. but it being on both sides of the letters or the outside and inside of the D made me go hmmm..

last one I had only showed on one side of the lettering.
and from what I understood it had to be on both sides and not taking away from the thickness of the devices..

whyyyyyy cant I just find a DD already lol

It'll happen. Too bad CC isn't working for you. You can learn a lot about a date so it can help with the DDO / DDR hunts.

Thanks guys. What I figured. Just the extreme MD on each side made me want to check.

First look through my loupe I was all excited. Poooooo!! Lol

Least I found my 98 Wide AM :) and a bunch of die cracks and some wheats out of two boxes.

Happy Easter

At least? The WAM is a terrific find and getting a few Wheats and desirable "Liberty" cents you enjoy = Good Box. Happy Easter to you as well.

It was def some decent boxes. Usually find more wheats. Pulled a good bit of copper out as well.

The WAM I'm stoked about being my first one. Kinda depressing looking on ebay and seeing there isn't that much of a premium for them. I guess there is for it being a cost of 1 cent. But searching that many and only finding one still makes it sad lol. For only a few bucks you'd think you'd find one all the time.
Why it's a hobby and not a business for me I suppose. Lol.

You find a lot of pits in a bowl of cherries. Rejoice over what you find, recycle the pits.

Yup. One thing I do enjoy about it. Every other hobby I have cost a arm and a leg and can't take the leftover back to the bank lol.

Been a while since I found a IHC. found 3-4 in matter of a few weeks. Bought due for one.
