Drsandman2 Pillar of the Community United States 1374 Posts	Posted 01/08/2011 10:08 pm Hey all! Some of you may have noticed I came home with some coins today. I wanted to post these pics of some doubling I see on the coin. I see very obvious doubling under the tip of the 2 and the 9. Obvious doubling on the ERTY with what seems to be moderate doubling on the other letters. Another Machine Double I assume? Thanks! http://img529.imageshack.us/g/sany0009n.jpg/ Report this Post to the Staff

Drsandman2 Pillar of the Community United States 1374 Posts	Posted 01/08/2011 10:55 pm Yeah, I'm better with pennies. The tarnish on the coin is obstructing a good photo of the date... I'm gonna keep working on this. Edit: This is not the 42 over 41, just a monster MD I suppose. Edited by Drsandman2 01/08/2011 11:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff

fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 01/08/2011 11:32 pm I see a bit of Machine Doubling (usually not valuable) on the RTY. Don't see anything particularly unusual about the date. Report this Post to the Staff
