Or was 93 when they went to cam? I thought it was 92? Either way, between the 92 and 93 I posted, either one worth hanging on to

Agree

WAM

There is some space there, but I wasnt sure which it qualified as.

That was my thought as well, but wanted other opinions.

Next question though, should I have it graded or just spend it with condition it's in?

I posted the 92 instead of 93, my apologies. So, wam or cam on this 93d

Would you consider this a wam or a cam

I just don't get it. You have been informed by some of the best professional numismatists that it is not a doubled die yet you insist it is.  If it was a 1982 or an 1882 it would still be machine doubling. 

Sure they are some of the best. You dont hold the coin in your hand; look at details by eye and by microscope. I appreciate your honesty. However, without seeing the coin yourself and how each part of the doubling is the same height. You are unable to see full potential of coin. Perhaps it is MD. Does that make it less doubled?  Especially when all parts are equally as high as the counter? MD is still doubling. Do you disagre with that statement? If I send this coin to be graded and they say ddo and ddr, then what? Will you still disagree; or will you and others submit? If no ddo or ddr existed today, then please tell me how it still does. That isnt according to me, but experts. So, would you please tell me?

Posting lots of pics is not the object of this exercise. Just one properly placed and photographed is often enough. In this case, all these prove nothing other than what you have already stated you think it can’t be.

Same answer as above; only I wanted to show each angle. Wanted everyone to see what I was able to see. In such case multiple pics should be posted....sir. would you settle for just one if you found multiple errors? I suspect not.

Coinbuf's comments are correct.

Do some research into how strike doubling/mechanical doubling occurs. (You can also look in the book "From Mine to Mint" where the cause is explained and illustrated. You can buy the book or borrow it from your local library through ILL.)

Do you not see how the double is the same height? Perhaps you need to see it personally. 1 press or 2 press; this is a double die. Not mechanical issues. Even if it were, that is a double. If it was an '82 you would call it doubling, correct? Because of 2 presses. I'm simply asking you to look closer and deeper than what you just may or may not glance at due to date. Same height, follows pattern of original letters or numbers. Very easy to see. Only look at pics before second date. Ty for observation sir.

1. i did post 2 didnt I? I will straighten that out.

How many coins are pictured in your photos?

Just 1

Will no one even look at this, or all the pics I posted? Need more of a professional opinion PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!

Weight, 2.5g

This cant be MD. Not with everything I have found. Full shouts of pennies obverse and reverse arent the clearest from my phone.

I had another British coin I was looking at many coins at once.

Why don't you just show the reverse of the George V instead of trying to be tricky with that 1965 what ever?

So are u saying it is a fake coin?

I did post wrong coin! That was my mistake. I do apologize.

How can that be a 1965 coin with King George V on it? In 1965 it would have the current Queen Elizabeth as the face.
Also all coins from the UK have Latin wording.

So are u saying it is a fake coin?

I don’t think it’s a die chip, it looks like foreign matter on the coin, like a little piece of salt  but yeah why is it relevant to this post I’m wondering as well.

Just wanted to show the date is all. So maybe it would be easier to know language. If it had been a '56 coin it might have been different. Correct?

Strange. I responded to this thread last night, but my response is not here. I wonder if I forgot to click "Submit Reply."

Any way, the coin has lots of abbreviations. The rough translation is "George the Fifth, By the Grace of God, King of All Britain, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India."

I wasn't on last night sorry for inconvenience. So this was when Brittan held, or had control over all the other "countries, or rather territories"?

Does anyone know what language this is by chance?

1943, the bottom loop has taken a hit.

My thoughts too, but my wife kept saying 42

Can anyone clarify the date on this coin? Only putting date on for now. Will add pics of whole coin as soon as I can.

LMGTFY.

I ask because NGC says after 1982 they went from 3.11 to 2.5 g

At what point did pennies go back from 2.5g to 3.11g?

He means "on the die," producing the coin as shown.

I've never heard of FT

The band is filled with trash (grease and debris) That would be considered not FT.

It is clean, not filled with anything. It just isnt there. 1 side of dime of dime is thicker than other; if that helps make a more accurate and precise decision.
