It's very important to have in the title. * * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * I have been looking at so many pennies lately that I am almost seeing double, LOL! My eyes may be tricking me, but the hair on this 1988 D look like it has some doubling (?) near where the arrow is pointing? I have been looking at tons of "normal" coins so I can learn to spot abnormal ones - just wondering if I happened to catch one or not? Thanks RJE Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 11/09/2023 3:26 pm @rje, looks like the doubling is most visible on the date for the two known DDOs of this year/mint: http://varietyvista.com/09d%20WQ%20...201988-D.htm Pls add a closeup pic of this region. Thx.

RJE New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 11/09/2023 3:47 pm @Spence, here is a photo of the date. Not sure I am seeing any doubling, but I am a novice regarding finding these things. The edge of Lincoln's shirt looks a bit different, though? Thanks! RJE Report this Post to the Staff

RJE New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 11/09/2023 3:55 pm I was thinking the same thing after comparing is closely to the PCGS images of that same date coin. Thanks for the input! RJE Report this Post to the Staff

RJE New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 11/10/2023 09:54 am Thanks for the warm welcomes! How can you tell the difference between plating issues and DD or other errors? I am assuming they do not increase the value, right? THanks! RJE Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8743 Posts	Posted 11/10/2023 12:41 pm RJE, there is no simple or quick answer, just time, experience, education from others and self education. Pay attention to what others offer up and do as much digging around on your own as you can. There are many resources out there that will help you along the way. Here is a thread I started for my bank roll finds and on page 28 are a list of useful links, this should take you to the right page. LINK http://goccf.com/t/404178&whichpage=28 Here is a direct link to all of the types of hub doubling, which is what you want to find. https://www.error-ref.com/doubled-dies/ As far as your question about worth, there is no premium for what you have posted on this thread. -makecents- Edited by -makecents- 11/10/2023 12:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
