Hello!

I definitely have just started on my numismatic journey just from the amount of "possible" varieties that I found that turned out to be Mechanical Doubling (several times pointed out by members of the CC).

I have found MANY. When I mean many, I mean just shy of 100 pennies all varying in condition, date, and mint... all with MD

So looking deeper into the possible market for MD, I found that the most obscure specimens are being sold. That being said, is there a possibility of selling "my collection" of MD?

Lay it on me

This is a Florida Novelty 1974D:
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?

This is a 1967P "tripling"(I have about 6-8 of these in UC):
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?

Here is a 1964D (I have about 15-20 in UC with various RPM):
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?
I'm-Really-Good-At-Finding-MD,-Possible-Worth-If-Sold?

I can't tell if this talent is a blessing or a curse

Tell me what you think!

Well you can always put the on ebay labeled as MD. Put a reserve on the auction if you want a minimum amount for them and then see what you get.

The sad part of it is that someone will buy them, then later claim they were jipped, even though the auction told them it was Machine Doubling, and pay to much for them. Even the Poor man's doubled dies and the so called 1958/7 coins, that are not that at all, still get snagged up. Best not to take advantage of untaught, rather than profit off their lack of reality.

Here are the sold listings for Machine Doubling on ebay - there are some very surprising prices being paid - and I don't understand why. Makes me want to list a few just to see what happens.........

EDIT: forgot to post the link
