I hope it is ok for me to keep asking questions. If not, just say so and I will stop because I don't want to be a bother....just trying to learn.


I have 3 pictures, each from different coins.

1st is a 1995P that after looking on coppercoins, I believe it is called a "close variation"? Is this technically a double die?

Second is a similar coin...This is a 2006P that has very similar striking. It is a lot more evident with the naked eye and a better picture.

This last one is a bit different....The picture is not the best but you can see best what I am seeing with the "E" in "cent". The "E CE" all have a "shaved" appearance on the bottom of the letter. Like the strike mis-hit slightly and shaved a portion of the relief off.

I have no idea where you're geting 'cose variation' from. The 1995 cent is normal.

The second coin is normal from all appearances. I see nothing that resembles doubling.

The third coin is the result of die wear. Nothing outside the norm there either.

Sorry, you're 0 for 3.

My bad....Close spread was the wording.

I was going off of 1DO-005 from the search on your site from the 1995 coins. I thought the top 2 were similar to that.

The 1DO-005 you are referring to is a D mint - your coin is a P mint. Can't be the same thing.

If you were referring to it being possibly similar - The photos of 1995D-1DO-005 either need to be retaken or the die needs to be deleted. I don't see anything worthwhile in the photos on the site either.
