This isn't a hostage negotiation. You're asking for help and giving us nothing to work on. no mint mark for that year just means it was minted in Philadelphia. We need to see pictures of the coin to confirm whether it is a doubled die coin. You didn't even say whether the obverse or reverse is [allegedly] doubled.

Without a picture to determine a grade the value gap is anywhere from a cent to a grand.

Yes, unortunately, nothing can be determined without pictures of both sides of the coin. There are several things that can happen to a coin that imitates the looks of a doubled die. While a 1968 Philadelphia struck doubled die is not catalogued, it doesn't mean that none exist. It's just very unlikely. An estimate for a genuine example can't be given because there is no history of sales, auctions, etc. to base anything on. If you have any questions about posting pics: Tutorials Budmann420!

 to the forum! What you are describing usually brings around one or two dollars on ebay. Most collectors don't want them, as they are doubling caused from the strike, not the die. Here is a link to a similar coin that recently sold: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1958-D-STRI...047675.l2557

Quote: I am suspicious of the doubled dies on the link Druu provided. Many of them appear to be MD to me Not my first choice, but coppercoins wasn't loading at the time. I've looked at variety vista for JFK halves, but I cannot attest to their accuracy in cents. Here's what coppercoins has for 1968. They're my primary resource for cents. http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...pe=do&page=0

First things first, this is a forum for help. If you don't post pictures, we can't help you. 1968 has no major (only minor) doubled dies on the obverse and any would be at most worth $10. Your coin will more likely be machine doubled (damaged in the press) and worth one cent. We're here to help you, if you will allow us to. But......
