Jokercut New Member United States 23 Posts	Posted 10/31/2017 5:47 pm Hi ,I'm a rookie and found what I think is a 1968s double die . Can anyone give me their opinion on if it is or isn't , if it is is it rare or pretty common ? Thanks, Rob * Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title.

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 10/31/2017 7:05 pm Welcome Rob, it is a classic shelf type MD. Very common on late 60's coins, when you see it on both mm and date in same direction of movement, it's 98% of the time MD...there are certain date/mm where there's a DDO AND RPM on the coin, not that often and on known coins. Check those question coins against reference sites: www.coppercoins.com www.doubleddie.com www.variety vista.com Report this Post to the Staff
