Shane30530 Valued Member Canada 73 Posts	Posted 09/29/2022 5:59 pm Hello everyone. My uncle passed and my cousin brought me his change jar to search through, around 400.00 of pennies. Last night I ran across a 1988 double ear penny, or to me looks like one. Asking for help in whether or not it is. Thanks to all in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95936 Posts	Posted 09/30/2022 11:07 am The lighting from directly overhead is creating glare and making it hard to tell what is actually going on here. I don't think it is a doubled ear, but then again hard to tell. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
