RoyCoinBoy Pillar of the Community United States 1609 Posts	Posted 01/08/2017 3:19 pm I purchased a U.S error book a while back, and I decided to look at some pocket change with a 60x loupe, and I found something surprising. I have been finding a quite immense amount of double memorial errors (at least I think so). Can someone post pics to clarify what is and isn't a double Memorial penny? Report this Post to the Staff
