Radatat, this is a completely normal Lincoln Memorial cent with absolutely no doubling. I noticed your coin has a little bit of die flow, so I'm thinking it's in a Mid Die State. It might just be the lighting or your eyes playing tricks on you. it's still a very nice BU Lincoln Memorial cent though.  Errers and Varietys.

Not dyslexia, but rather wishful thinking.  Keep at it though and you'll get a keeper (just not this one). "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

ok I sort of knew that would be the answer. I simply do not recognize doubling. And I study what is available. Yuk. Tks

radatat, when you have a real doubled die in your hands you will know it. Trust me when I say that we have all been there! I for one must have posted over two dozen coins thinking, hoping that I had finally found one only to find out that I was wrong again. Don't let it discourage you as it takes time to learn and understand! keep doing your homework and research as well as searching and one will come your way. |

I have been there too and it does take time to learn. It's not easy at first, but once you get good at it, you'll go through coin rolls like nothing. Don't give up and keep asking questions!

Radatat, remember that die wear and initial design are key factors in the size of details. For instance, the 1968 series Master Working Hub dies were so overworked that massive Die Deterioration was passed down through ALL dies used that year. It made the IGWT touch the rim and the L of Liberty to curl up the edge. Other years have similar problems, 1982 comes to mind where it was so bad they changed to the 1983 Hubs with smaller details. |

I see just a tiny bit of what looks like md on the N, but that's it.

I probably submitted pictures of 100 coins I was sure were doubled before I found some actual doubling. It's no joke, when you see the real deal it's like boing! Lol.
