I'm hoping I'm right about those error. Definite letter doubling on the reverse (circled in blue) and I think a weak strike on the obverse.

Machine Doubling on the reverse. But it looks like it was struck through a die cap on the obverse, very cool find!

The die cap blows the doubling out of the water! Excellent score, samiller513!

Wow! That's awesome! Yeah, I just got into coin collecting (relatively new adhd fixation at the moment) and I have about $600 in coins rolled up so ove been going through them. Got a bunch of Die Cud and slight off centers, but this one is the biggest error I've ever found actually. Worth getting graded?

Quote: Worth getting graded? In my opinion, not really. Just keep it unslabbed. It's probably worth like 30 to 35 dollars at most. Grading costs a lot of money and is only worth it, if the coin is worth like 150 dollars or more.
Errers and Varietys.

samiller513,  Very nice find. I would dip it in 100% pure acetone and put it in an Air-Tite capsule. John1

Awesome find! Not worth grading from a monetary standpoint, but still very rare to find in circulation. I've hunted a lot of coins and have never found one.
