AmyRM New Member United States 27 Posts	Posted 11/09/2020 8:34 pm I have inherited proof sets (from 1960, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65). This is my first experience with proof sets. It seems like several coins have doubled die ... I read that proof sets are double struck. Would that be the reason for the different layers on the numbers and letters? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

I inherited lots of coins from all over the world. Still learning & growing. Thanks for your help! I recognize the obvious doubled die coins but still struggling to recognize the less obvious ones. I will keep on keeping on & Report this Post to the Staff
