Dearborn Moderator United States 97198 Posts	Posted 09/09/2022 7:13 pm I see linear plating bubbles on the reverse. not sure about the doubled ear though. Collecting since 1972.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/12/2022 12:28 pm On the ear, that is a contact mark. Coin damage on that area. If it were raised and enlarged, then it could be a doubled ear. But the affected area is showing a removal of the normal design area, removing the contour of the ear lobe. On a doubled die that area would be raised, not incuse. Need to see more? On this new image, enlarge and look at each doubled ear, and note, the design is raised above the normal ear or on the fields. CoopHome: What feature is seen on a doubled ear DDO? the affected area will be raised, not incuse (enlarge this image to see this even better) Report this Post to the Staff

CentSeeker Valued Member United States 108 Posts	Posted 09/12/2022 3:07 pm Thanks for the graphic coop! I must find the 1984, 1988 and 1997 doubled ear cents now. Those doubled ears are mighty impressive compared to the others. Report this Post to the Staff
