Found this penny while roll searching and reading the date started hurting my eyes. I see doubling but havent heard of a 1992 dd. what does it look like to you guys? how would this have happened? by the way I know nothing about errors or double dies or fakes so I am just posting this to get some insight from the experts :) sorry it is sideways.  |

I'm by no means an expert, but it looks to me like there is just some dirt/grime and a clean area shadowing the digits. I don't see any obvious doubling.

Looks like some dirt is "shadowing" the digits as the previous posters said. I've come across these before and they make you take a second look.

Not reallly a Double Die. Similar to what is a 1955 Poor Man's double I think. Coppercoins should really answer this one.
Yet if you go to coin shows you would see such coins selling for from $1 to $10 pending the amount of that and the grade of the coin itself. There is a really great increase in the amount of error colleetors so even the slightest error is now growing in value.

It is caused by die wear, very common and not an error.
