Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 08/28/2019 5:48 pm I have a couple of these 1982 D LMC and coppercoins has one similar but the mintmark is in the wrong place. Looks like class VI doubling but thought I would throw this on the board to hear your thoughts. Report this Post to the Staff

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 08/28/2019 6:08 pm I'm honestly not seeing the pickup points that I would expect to see for a class VI. Tail of the 9 , middle curve of the S. I'll also be honest in that the one that Bob has listed may well have slipped my notice had it passed under my glass. Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4404 Posts	Posted 08/28/2019 6:15 pm I'm not seeing it either. Notching and separation should be at least slightly visible, and the letters should not look flattened or weakened. I found WDDO-001 a while ago and I remember the notching on the R was pretty noticeable. I think your coin has a slightly weak strike and a bit of Die Deterioration. Report this Post to the Staff
Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 08/28/2019 6:18 pm I guess that the 2 is so much thicker than that of a normal cent of that year had me guessing. Thanks guys. Edited by Jim0815 08/28/2019 6:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 08/28/2019 6:34 pm Rookie, I've got about thirty of the 1982 D small dates in this or better condition. Report this Post to the Staff

Evan7 Pillar of the Community United States 1070 Posts	Posted 08/28/2019 6:49 pm Haha Jim, send it to me then. I don't just collect varieties, I try to keep ANY cents that are in great condition. This one looks to AU if not MS condition Report this Post to the Staff
Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 08/28/2019 7:05 pm I have a few of the cents from the 80's that the plating look like glass. No plating bubbles, they are all VEDS coins. A couple I feel may be from first strikes. Edited by Jim0815 08/28/2019 7:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
