I am new to this site and was wondering if this 1958-D Wheat penny could be a double die? This is the only area on the penny that I can see that might be doubled. Thanks for any help
A doubled die has the devices enlarged, not reduced. Machine Doubling is cause by the machine altering the coin right after the strike. On a doubled die, the doubling is on the die and the devices are enlarged. Enlarged devices. Can you see how they are different than your coin?
