1993Z Valued Member United States 202 Posts	Posted 01/30/2018 3:23 pm I was going through my pennys and I think I may have found a 1983p penny with a 1dr-002 and a 1do-001? At lest I sure hope I did. Let me know what you think I'm still very new to this and it's hard to tell. Is it very common to get a dubbled die on both sides? Sorry about the upside down pictures I thought I rotated them.

1993Z Valued Member United States 202 Posts	Posted 01/30/2018 4:15 pm Thanks that's awesome. The only reason it survived is because it has been in my change jug for 10+ years. Makes me wonder what else is in there! Report this Post to the Staff

1993Z Valued Member United States 202 Posts	Posted 01/30/2018 5:09 pm Thanks! Do you think it would be worth getting it graded and slabed? Or do you think it would cost more than it was worth? Report this Post to the Staff

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 01/30/2018 7:07 pm Just wondering which die everyone thinks this is. It's not 001 or 002. There is no widening of the devices. This looks to be lighting Report this Post to the Staff
1993Z Valued Member United States 202 Posts	Posted 01/30/2018 7:33 pm I tried to get better pictures for you. I hope this helps a little more. I need better equipment Report this Post to the Staff
Mrzllewellyn Pillar of the Community United States 1901 Posts	Posted 01/30/2018 8:09 pm It looks like Die Deterioration to me or die wear or whatever you want to call a worn out die Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/31/2018 3:55 pm To me the devices are the same size as a normal coin. The tops of the devices appear to be altered a bit like circulation damage or Ejection damaged or very high bouncing machine damage. If it were hub doubling I would expect to see the devices enlarged. Seeing this affect on both sides of the coin makes me think it is damage. What are the chances of affecting both sides the same way? Report this Post to the Staff
1993Z Valued Member United States 202 Posts	Posted 01/31/2018 4:39 pm Is there any way to clean the black stuff off the top of the letters and not damage the coin? so I can maybe get a better picture because it looks like on the O,s they cross or swirl at the top and bottom. I could be wrong though. Report this Post to the Staff
