sweeps102 New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 11/13/2015 04:36 am I have looked at this cent from every possible angle and I'm just can't tell what type of doubling it is. It's a shiny cent so it was hard getting a good picture without glares and shadows. Hopefully these are good enough to determine the doubling. Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

Here is a link that will show you pictures of various types of doubling on known varieties. http://www.coppercoins.com/advsearch.php Report this Post to the Staff
sweeps102 New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 11/13/2015 10:12 pm Thank you for that link. The thing that threw me for a loop is the when hub doubling is described as having a "notch" at the tips of the letters. I interpreted that as meaning if I can see the tips of each letter and they aren't somehow "mashed" together then it "could" be hub doubling. The N, D, E, R, and S are what had me questioning whether it was hub or Machine Doubling. There's so much to learn but I am enjoying it. Report this Post to the Staff
