Derlowemann New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 01/31/2011 5:10 pm I was going through some rolled pennies and came across this. Looks like a good double. I hope the pic shows the detail, you can easily see another D coming off the bottom right. I am going to play with it some and try to get a better picture. Nice find for going through some rolls from the bank. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 01/31/2011 5:15 pm Hard to tell by that pic, but the "bump" looks like a plating issue. Very common on the zincolns. A close up of the MM would help a lot. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Derlowemann New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 02/01/2011 7:28 pm Yeah the picture does not show up well, but looking with a jewlers loop you can see the front half of a D } coming off the mint mark. I tried to scan a better pic but it will not let me upload the one with more detail. There is a gap between the two that barely shows up on this pic and the shadows hide the lines of the second D. I will take it to my coin guy to make sure. Report this Post to the Staff
