You found a nice strong example of a MD,I would keep it. I keep all my MD. I sell them some times. Sell it as a Machine Doubling. Check out John Wexler site you will see about 3-5 Doubling that are not from a Die having Doubledness,that's not a word. |

They do some buy them and collect them,most times the Machine Doubling or the Few types of Worn Die Doubling needs to be a strong example to sell but not always. |

Some here do not want them or to sell them. I do. What I some will have nothing to do with. You will have to decide. You are not going to find more then a roll or so if that even in month searching 4 Bank Boxes a month.

in other words if your coin had been struck at the mint by a doubled die you would have a doubled die coin. on the other hand if your coin was struck by a regular die you' have a regular coin. on the third hand if your coin was struck by a regular die that wobbled while striking,or was wearing out, you would have Strike Doubling which encompasses md, worthless doubling and such. other worthless anomylies are considered PMD post mint damage which is just that-it occurred after the striking process. read it twice it will become simple. I will send you a bill. |

I do not sell them. They are common and if you sold them on ebay, you could get a bad reputation. I don't want that. So I'd rather not sell them. |

I too am learning, at214.this seems to be the place for that. as for photography, In my more recent pictures, I use macro setting with white balance. I made a studio out of a nickel box to keep glare off the lense. I'll send a picture.

it eliminates shadows and shows reliefs in lights and darks. shine flashlight horizontally at glass, shoot from above. the glass is on a 45 degree angle. axial or diffused lighting. probably be better to cover box in dark cloth.  |

I just used glass from a picture frame, the thinner the better. the picture is not perfect, but much better than my previous. I think the flashlight was not at right angle.  just an example of results you can expect |
