*** Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. Titles are Important! ***

Hello, I have a 1940 S with a doubling on the right sides of the #1 and #9 . and the mint mark appears as a 8. Is there any value to this coin. Thanks much

Looking to hard on the areas that show Machine Doubling. Look at the centers of the devices for spread on the devices:
Variety Vista
1940 DDO-002
Strong extra thickness on all lettering and date.

Check out the date. Spread means the devices are enlarged. On your coin you looking at the edge of the devices where all the Machine Doubling happens.

It's Machine Doubling, not a Doubled Die. Also, a Doubled Die is a variety, not an error.
