Crow45 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 06/26/2024 3:34 pm I found this coin in a old coffee can my late father had been sticking his pocket change in. It looks to be doubled on the obverse but I'm not sure if it's Machine Doubling or die doubling. Also the black color on the coin how did that come about on coins? I have been keeping coins when I find them in this color, are they worth keeping? Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5772 Posts	Posted 06/27/2024 07:45 am I agree with the responses above. I usually associate that black color with house fires. Not a benefit at all. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
Sharks Pillar of the Community Canada 1762 Posts	Posted 06/27/2024 12:45 pm @Crow45 Can't see doubling due to picture quality. Perhaps dark toning due to environmental exposure/conditions. Report this Post to the Staff
Crow45 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 07/02/2024 1:11 pm I'm seeing doubling on the lettering and slight doubling in the date. The black makes it difficult to see, would a soak in acetone hurt the coin at all? Report this Post to the Staff
