ant30 New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 08/28/2023 06:08 am I new to collecting coins. I recently acquired 2 federal bank rolls of 1958-d pennys. As I was looking through them all, this one in particular stood out to me. Can someone tell me if this is possibly an error coin or nothing at all. Thanks again for any and all replies.

Here is a link to the two known DDOs for this year/mint cent to help you with your research: http://varietyvista.com/01a%20LC%20...201958-D.htm "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6678 Posts	Posted 08/28/2023 10:33 am Certainly a very dramatic feature. As others have said, Machine Doubling is common for that era of coins. There almost looks like separation on the bottom of the 5, and the fuzziness of the top almost looks more consistent with Die Deterioration Doubling. Hard to distinguish with the pixelization. Are you using a scope? The mods here recommend using a memory card or cable with a scope. It produces much sharper pictures and better depth than a phone pic of a screen.
