I found this 2020 P Roosevelt dime, which happens to be in great condition and I am almost positive it's a doubled die. Except I can't find anything online about such a coin. Which is where my doubt starts to trickle in. But on the coin it seems to be doubled through out the whole front as shown in pictures. And maybe a possible die chip or something by his mouth. What are y'all's opinions

It is hard to see any good detail with the blue color on the close up images. But taking a guess that as your 'apparent' doubling is trending towards the rim all around the coin, I'd have to say that this is DDD.

It also looks like there is some glare doubling effects in your closeups. Try looking at those areas in a different light.

When you look at listings of doubled dies, there are very few obverse DDO dimes after 1973. They are pretty much not happening on this series. Often it is die wear, Machine Doubling issues. So study the know examples to see what a doubled die looks like on this series. There are a few DDR's lisings post 1973, but you are not looking in the right areas of the post 1999 dimes. The post 1999 coins are more of a Single squeeze die issue because of the way the die is created. When looking at this series of DDR's know what areas, how they are affected, and realize the devices are not the areas you are looking for DDR's on.

Just like a map, look to see what you should be looking for on these for doubled dies. You will realize what is happening on these doubled dies, and that there are hardly any listed examples. I've given up on this denomination for doubled dies post 1973. But take a look to see what you are missing, then your eyes will know the areas to spot these few doubled dies on the dimes.

A doubled die can only happen if the die is doubled. Machine Doubling and die wear are alterations of the designs. They are not doubled dies. On a doubled die, the devices will be wider than normal, not reduced in size making the devices smaller. Die wear and die polishing can reduce or affected the devices in a certain direction. (always towards the outer rim direction) This applies for all coins, but dimes are pretty much duds. Example?

Note what you should be looking for on these.

Only one die known.

So train your eyes as to what to look for on the 1999 dimes forwards. Pre 1973 dimes will have some listings, but between the 1974-1998 dimes, they doubled dies are very sparse during that time period. So know what your looking for to find the DDR's.

Why can't I find the dime doubled dies?

Thank y'all for the information. And especially the examples you had given. I need to book mark those sites to refer to. I'll try and take some pictures in not so blue light and post them .

These listings are online at the various sites. The nice thing about online is when they update/add new dies, the information will be found. They don't update books. So online is a better source. Also if you have a specific question, open a new thread so the new information will all be together on the site. There are many pages of information on this site on answers to various questions. Look at the upper boxes for this link to this infomation:
2020-P-Roosevelt-Dime-DDO?
The information there will help you a lot more than a book. Can you ask a book a question. Here you can get answers. So you are already looking at the most update information. Welcome aboard.
