maladoes New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 07/19/2019 8:15 pm I came across this 1988 Lincoln Cent with doubling on the reverse and some damage on the obverse of the coin and my question is will this coin sell for anything? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/19/2019 8:30 pm If you have Machine Doubling on a coin that you send in for grading, they do not recognize it. They just list it as a normal coin. Over 130 people found that out on PCGS when they thought they found the big doubled die. But it was Machine Doubling. So people spend a lot of money to be told they have a normal coin. We do that free here. Report this Post to the Staff
