Hello,

I'm brand new to the group and would like to say hello---while at the same time presenting this image of a Kennedy found while roll searching today.

Is this strike or Machine Doubling or a true doubled die? I know one exists for this year and mint mark but haven't been able to find any images. It is not listed in the CPG.

Thanks!

Here is an image of the entire coin---I can post MUCH higher rez. images, but the forum gives me the message that files are limited to 90KB, so I am having to WAY downsize the image and the rez. Advice on posting images and/or getting around the forum limitation?

Also, the fuzziness in the first image is not blurred or out of focus---this is pretty much what the "WE TRUST" actually looks like on the coin. You can see that the "4" in the date is in sharp focus. Perhaps causes by the spread in the DDO? Also, this is wider font implemented by the mint sometime after 1977----
