    Greenstang got a reaction from Sandon in 1942 quarter, broadstruck or damage?   
    If it shows reeding, it can’t be a Broadstruck. Not an error or a dryer coin, just worn and worth it’s weight in silver.

    Welcome
    Please post each coin on it’s own thread with a clear picture of both sides plus a closeup of    
    your area of concern. It gets confusing with more than one coin per thread.
    Also FYI, a Doubled Die is a variety, not an error. There is a big difference between the two.

    Greenstang got a reaction from Mike Meenderink in 1795 Silver Dollar - Draped Bust Off-center   
    Welcome to the forum
    That is a one look counterfeit.   
    All you have to do is compare your photo with a genuine photo to easily see the differences.

    Greenstang got a reaction from Hector Rivera 405 in There is some México Libertad Onza from 1983 with tripled Die Reverse   
    Yes it is. A Doubled Die is on the striking die so all coins struck frrom that die would show Doubling
    Machine Doubling is a mechanical issue when the coin wa struck so it would only show on coins struck until the issue was corrected so it is possible to have both.

    Not a DDO, you can’t have Die Doubling showing on both sides of the coin.

    Greenstang got a reaction from Sandon in contact me if this coin has a value   
    Welcome to the Forum
    First, this is forum for buying and selling coins. You should have posted this in the “Newbie “ Forum.   

    As far as your coins go, the Italian coin is worth 500 Lira and the Canadian is worth 1 dollar Canadian.   
    Both are only worth face value. Why did you think they were worth more?
  13. Thanks

    And the price will probably drop as more are found. With this being on at least one die, there would be hundreds

    Why do you think it is worth grading? It is a common 1982 copper cent that had millions produced.  
    It would cost $50-60 dollars to have graded and has a value of 1 cent.
