gschmidtjd Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 09/27/2023 1:02 pm Again, I am new to coin collecting, so please be patient. Any thoughts on the doubling on the "989" on this penny, is it just Machine Doubling? The 8 looks particularly doubled and does not appear to be incuse. Report this Post to the Staff
