But the lower left of C and middle of E in ONE CENT throws me off. The left wreath shows flat thin doubling but also some true doubling What do you think? Report this Post to the Staff

Does NOT add any value to the coin, and in some cases can hurt a perfect high grade example as one looking to acquire a perfect specimen would rather have a coin with no stiking flaws of any kind.
