shuddle10 New Member United States 48 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 5:56 pm Hi Guys, There are a lot of pictures here, a lot is going on with this coin, including the obverse rim error and potential doubled dies. Your expert comments are appreciated, thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

canyonmule Valued Member United States 93 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 6:19 pm Hello shuddle10 - I am a bit hesitant to reply because you asked for expert opinions and I am not. That said I see Machine Doubling but no doubled dies. Checking Variety Vista and Wexler's, none of your pics match up with any of the varieties listed. https://doubleddie.com/823944.html http://varietyvista.com/09d%20WQ%20...O%201976.htm Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 6:38 pm Not seeing any doubling other than MD and doubling from light. Not seeing any errors, just regular marks that are on most coins. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95432 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 6:49 pm I agree with the above comments, but you may have either a die dent or smooth die chip on the R Collecting since 1972.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19141 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 6:56 pm Yes, a mix of Die Deterioration and Machine Doubling. Could be a fun curiosity to hold onto. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 8:17 pm Agree on botch counts, pretty common overall. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/07/2023 08:09 am shuddle10, I am seeing MD and or DDD. It is best if you tell us what all you are seeing as a possible error and if you think you are seeing a doubled die issue include a possible attribution number after checking all three reference sites we all need to check.

shuddle10 New Member United States 48 Posts	Posted 09/10/2023 7:50 pm http://goccf.com/t/452545#3911169 Hi John1, Hope I figured out to reply your comment specifically. Better pictures are attached here. I'm a bit new to coins but did check some at Wexler's but can not confirm the exact die markers. I have not checked other sites yet. Is it possible this this is a new find or unrecorded? Until I can dig in deeper, the new pictures should illustrate the doubling better. As for tripled devices, I've had a hard time finding a good example but think the 976 in the date are a good possibility as are the W in WE and the S in TRUST. I will start a new topic with photos showing DDR errors, as well. There are too many pictures here. I am hyper analytical and tenacious. If something is there, I'll find it....and more... Sometimes not such a good thing but in coin errors, I'll take it. Thanks for believing in my coin! Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/11/2023 05:43 am I am not seeing a DDO on your coin. http://varietyvista.com/09d%20WQ%20...O%201976.htm https://www.coppercoins.com/advsearch.php http://doubleddie.com/ When posting pics of coins, it is best to take the photos the same way they are on the reference sites you are using. Also, start out with four photos,a full coin pic obverse a full coin pic reverse and one or two close ups where and when needed. If we need more photos we will kindly ask you for them.
