Relative newbie to coin roll hunting. Picking up the hobby again after a few decades.

I found an interesting error. Most of "America" is doubled and there's a die crack the transverses the initials. Is this worth getting graded?

Many thanks!

Looks like Die Deterioration. Definitely not worth grading.



to the CCF!

Thank you for the welcome and reply!

I kind of suspected that's what it was, but the doubling seemed pretty sharp and distinct. I'm learning!

I agree with frog, your picture shows DDD and lots of glare contributing to the doubling appearance .

Die Deterioration Doubling on the date, and Ridge Ring. Not worth getting it graded. Grading is very expensive.

to the CCF and Grading will eat up anywhere from $20. to $100.. It takes a good error or variety to be worth it.
