AyoJustin Valued Member United States 317 Posts	Posted 12/18/2018 11:38 am I was going through some rolls and found a 1969 s doubled die Lincoln Cent coin. Although doubling only shows In the date. Is this coin still worth some money? I would love to hear your guys input... thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/18/2018 11:51 am It is probably Machine Doubling. MD is very common on the 1968-1972 cents. The areas around the devices are reduced in size kind of like these: There were submitted to PCGS and they are normal cents with Machine Doubling. MD was so common that year the true DDO's have Machine Doubling on them on the date area as well: Check for the arrows. The MD examples probably out number the ones without the MD. (ON PCGS they MD ones submitted were 70%, 30% without) There are a couple of others that year were attributed as DDO's that were on the date areas: 1969-D DDO-001 1969S-1DO-003 on coppercoins. So if you could post an image, we can figure out which one you have. Edited by coop 12/18/2018 11:52 am Report this Post to the Staff
AyoJustin Valued Member United States 317 Posts	Posted 12/18/2018 12:42 pm Hey thanks coop, after seeing your post it seems that the coin is a MD after all. Its amazing how there are many different types in appearance an MD coin can have. I was always under the impression that all MDs had only one type of appearance. Very interesting.
