verytaxing New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 07/11/2021 11:58 pm I have a had time distinguishing between double dies and double strikes. With this penny I would like to know what the correct terminology would be to describe it. Is it worth keeping or put it back into circulation? If it has unique errors, what would be the value if any? Should this coin be certified? Report this Post to the Staff

Second, I'm not seeing a doubled die here, but neither am I seeing machine doubling--maybe a bit of doubling from the glare used in your photo set-up? Let's see what others think too though.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/12/2021 10:12 am Well you are using double lighting. This makes if look like something is there, when there isn't. On the EPU, if the devices are enlarged, it is not a doubled die. On these devices they are incuse on the coin. So Machine Doubling enlarges these devices: But note on the lower image I posted. Note how on the DDR, these devices are made smaller on a doubled die on these incuse devices. All I see on your coin on both sides is Machine Doubling. Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/12/2021 4:51 pm I agreed with Spence, some Machine Doubling with lots of glare from the lighting. Use a defused lighting source for best results. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
