1inabullion New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 05/10/2023 06:15 am Good morning everyone!! I have this 1936 Wheat penny that was in "supposedly" unsearched roll...does this look like doubling of Lincoln's jaw and chin? Or just really precise damage? Please tell me what you think. Thank you so much!! Edited by 1inabullion 05/10/2023 06:55 am Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96112 Posts	Posted 05/10/2023 06:21 am Will need a better close up with better lighting on this. But I think it was just a well placed hit in the jaw.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5774 Posts	Posted 05/10/2023 07:01 am I definitely agree this is a well placed hit to the bottom of the jaw.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19155 Posts	Posted 05/10/2023 07:59 am Yes, I'm thinking a circulation hit. Not that it matters much, but it appears the coin was cleaned at some point in the past. Matters even less, but wondering what the reverse looks like?. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96112 Posts	Posted 05/10/2023 3:31 pm thanks for the extra image, much better (still a bit tiny but viewable.) and with myself and others that followed that it is a hit in the chin and harsh cleaning.

1inabullion New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 05/10/2023 10:57 pm Hey y'all, so the penny was cleaned...it came in a roll I recently purchased off of ebay along with 49 other washed coins. The roll I thought I was purchasing was supposed to be an unsearched 1909-1958 Wheat penny roll with a BU at one end and a proof at the other. When I first opened the roll I was so excited I thought they were all mints till I seen some 20's flat as a board but way too shiny...so anyway, I wasnt the one who did it. Thank you all for the feedback, I'm learning so much!! Oh and a special thanks for welcoming to your community Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/11/2023 12:19 pm Just damage to this coin. If it were a doubled die, then other devices would be affected. Contact marks only affect the impact areas. 1984 DDO: So on the 1984 DDO, the hub doubling altered other devices. On your coin coin contact altered the affected area. (Just another piece of the puzzle in knowing what Doubled dies will show) Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 05/11/2023 4:59 pm Stay away from those "unsearched" rolls. No such thing. To entice people they put shinny coins on the ends, so right there you know that they had to "search" the coins to get the good coins on the end. Report this Post to the Staff
