JWJ New Member United States 45 Posts	Posted 08/24/2019 9:12 pm Hi, I'm new to both collecting, and to the forum. I found this 1974 double headed penny in a roll. I'm assuming it's a fake? Is this even possible as a legitimate error? Report this Post to the Staff

JWJ New Member United States 45 Posts	Posted 08/24/2019 11:36 pm Thanks. I do notice now, the ridge around the edge in the first photo, where one was likely seated into the other. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/26/2019 8:36 pm Actually that is not the double faced coin you would want. A tails/tails is better. Why? Most of the time on a coin flip, heads is called. Want to win, don't use this coin for your coin toss. Report this Post to the Staff
