Hi Sam, are you referring to the sort of "ghost" doubling to the south of the numbers? I believe this would be Die Deterioration Doubling if I'm not mistaken. |

I marked the area on each number to indicate the doubling. Thanks, Sam   |

I saw what you have marked. Inside the loop of the 9 looks interesting. There even appears to be separation but it doesn't seem to correspond the to the other areas you have marked. Those areas do look like Die Deterioration. You will need to post full images of the obv and rev to help determine the die state. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

Machine doubling. A lot of the 1968-1972 cents had Machine Doubling. On the Big DDO, look at the Liberty area and the motto for doubling. Then you will not be distracted by just looking at the date area.  Edited by coop

Did you note the red arrows on the image I posted. If the coin is not doubled exactly like that, then it is not the big doubled die. So look at the Liberty and the Motto areas. Forget the date. The MD is deceiving a lot of people on that area. 133 people submitted coins to PCGS with the Machine Doubling, paid the fees and had a normal coin graded:  |

Liberty is written below the visible liberty for a second time.   |

Look closely you can see Liberty written a second time under the other Liberty. I keep looking and it looks like it's only lighting to me. |

Sorry, you can't see it actually is pretty cool looking to me. It is my first good find. I would turn the lights out and take a photo, but you wouldn't be able to see the coin at all. Believe me not the lights, thanks for your input though.

Looks like a normal "69"S to me.

Can you get a closeup of LIB? Thanks.
If you study your images you can see why we are having a difficult time seeing what you are seeing.
When you take the images rotate the coin so the light reflects off it differently each time.
