Titles are Important! * I found this coin while coin roll hunting. I think that it is the cherrypickers double die. I have provided several close up pics using an USB camera. But I cannot provide pictures of the entire coin, as the camera on my phone is so broken that your imagination would provide a better picture. Report this Post to the Staff

There is two on coppercoins that maybe a match: 002 http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=lds 003 http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=mds Edited by coop 07/29/2018 8:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74497 Posts	Posted 07/29/2018 6:28 pm It's definitely a Doubled Die Obverse, since I can see extra thickness in the date and in "IGWT". Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 07/29/2018 6:34 pm You should include the date, mintmark, and the denomination in your titles. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/29/2018 6:35 pm You guys have better eyes than me,I see no DDO. When ever possible,remove from whatever holder a coin is in before taking pics. You should be able to get a full coin pic with a USB scope. Put the scope on a book and keep adding books as needed. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

But I use my phone for that. But yeah just wanted let you know not all scopes can get a full picture Report this Post to the Staff

luvmyCAM Pillar of the Community United States 1479 Posts	Posted 07/29/2018 8:26 pm Pennypride you nailed it, you got the big one! Congratulations on one great find. Yours is mid die state and a few dings but it is the 1984 D F'S-101. Don't hold your breath looking for another woohoo great job. Look at the bottom of Abe's bust...the entire length will show a thin line all the way across. Match the reverse die markers also and you will know definitely. Its the good one way to go. I will give you 50 for it :) Report this Post to the Staff

PennyPride Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 07/29/2018 8:34 pm Should I get it graded? I'll get it graded by NGC, as it cost $65 to get it graded by PCGS. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/29/2018 8:38 pm I wouldn't the coin is not worth that much. I've never sent anything in to be graded. I figure the value had to be over $100+ if I ever did. They even charge more for attributing a doubled die. PCGS will usually only use FS-###s. Report this Post to the Staff
