Deb1970 Valued Member United States 50 Posts	Posted 04/29/2023 12:19 am Hi I'm new so please bare with me. I have a 2005 shiny penny that when I looked under the microscope I noticed doubling in letter E in WE and the R and the S in TRUST. I also noticed what looks like a second earlobe. The coins is very shiny also. Thanks & Report this Post to the Staff

Khromtau Pillar of the Community United States 676 Posts	Posted 04/29/2023 12:41 am I just use my phone, zoomed in. Sometimes in combination with a loupe to get maximum magnification without it looking too pixelated. Very rarely with a microscope, but I have done it on occasion. Hopefully this helps.

Lots of times other doubling will be present for a true doubled die. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
