I appreciate you sharing this info! I know I have a VERY LONG way to go. I am building this collection of slabbed coins to leave as inheritance for my unborn grandkids. Gold, silver, copper and nickel collections.

I paid for both error AND variety attributions.

the plan is simple, Step 1. Hunt Step 2. Sell lol

Can we overlay these images for reference? because it looks darn close to me. I hate to be a grumpy old man but I'd like to see these images overlayed for reference.

This would be WAY MORE than the 15 degrees clockwise and certainly about 15 degrees anti-clockwise. The thing is rotated to the 11 o'Clock position. Idk man...

I am disappointed with my first coin grading experience but I WILL continue to hunt coins and get the best finds graded. I recently sent this 1970 S Large Date penny in to NGC for attribution. I wasn't as concerned with the grade as I am with the error attribution. I even included a note explaining my find and it's super obvious if you look at the images below. I have no idea why such an obvious error would not be attributed by one of the biggest grading companies in the world. Regardless, I am still on a mission to make 7 figures off coins, errors and varieties!

I recently submitted a 1970 S Large Date Penny which clearly has a Rotated Die Error as you'll see in the images below, however the coin came back without the Rotated Die Attribution. Please assist and advise how I can get this kind of error attributed.

hello Team, Hope y'all enjoying the memorial day. I found this penny while roll hunting. Under the microscope, it certainly looks like a double earlobe, however, it's not as pronounced as other examples I've seen circulating online. Do you think this is worth getting graded?

Thanks for the input guys. As always your professional insight from years of experince is greatly appreciated. That being said, I took a closer look at the coin and I'm just gonna post the pics and you guys tell me what you see. So, in addition to the missing "of" on the reverse, there may be something on the obverse.

hello Team, I know these are pretty common but I've never seen one this extreme to point where it's almost as if the word "of" is missing from the United States of America on the reverse of the coin. I think it's a cool piece for conversation so I'm keeping it. I call it the "United States - America" Lincoln Cent because that's exactly what it looks like.

I'm no expert on this but to me it looks like this impression MAY HAVE BEEN in the planchet before the strike. I could be wrong. I base my theory on the fact that if this impression was made after the strike it would flatten a lot of the more minute and delicate details like the steps, the edge of the columns, etc. Just my "one cent". --Pun intended

The example I am cross referencing can be found on the PCGS website here https://www.pcgs.com/auctionprices/item/1992-d-1c-rd/3101/7033467905972502349

I hope I can rejoice that I've found something this time. This 1992 shows what looks tome like a DDO.. After spending the entire weekend and Monday looking for examples, the closest I found was the screenshot below. Now, the coin I have is almost exactly the same, minus the abbrasion doubling seen around the 9 and the 2 in the above image. The next set of images will be the coin I found while roll hunting. It has the same line down the middle of all the numbers and letters except for the D mintmark. here are my photos:-

hello again Team, Just wondering what to call this find and check if this is a known/recognized variety. I do believe I saw a similar variety sold on ebay some years ago when I just heard about coin collecting. My hunch is it may be a minor error/variety since it's not visible with the naked eye. What's your take?

Very informative @Sandon. That is what I love most about this community. Very helpful and informative. Since I found this quarter I've developed a habbit of carefully inspecting ALL fiat that passes through my hand and if I see anything then I put it under a microscope to verify. I have 3 die cud errors I found doind that.

you crack me up @RWB

Thanks for bringing this up @powermad5000. Us newbies will certainly benefit from this knowledge. I share the same opinion as you. I consider the CAC and MAC stickers to be like that colorful star or smiley face sticker my first grade teacher would give us whenever we aced a test . That stuff used to get me so hyped up!

I found this beautiful specimen (1996 P Mintmark Washington Quarter with Die Crack/Die Break Error) in my pocket change around November 2022. It's in horrible shape however I can't seem to find anything even remotely close to this. I believe I may have found a very unique error here. Any help or reference/cross-refence resources for this specific Die Break Error would be greatly appreciated since I'm not finding anything on it.

I did find some better examles sold on eBay in February 2023. I see them being sold for around $2 to $5, most being around the $2 range.

hello again Team, I'm back with another cool find! This 1969 D Penny with Floating Roof and missing FG I can say is certainly a cool find! This coin has a lot of eep scratches so I don't think I will be getting this one graded. What do you guys think it's worth?

Thank you so much! I did check that website and it looks a little like the second-to-last and the last images in the article I found here: http://doubleddie.com/90701.html What do you think?

My bad, I forgot to add them in the initial post.

hello Team, Been hunting through coin rolls for around a month now. I'm a complete newbie to the hobbie so your professional opinion is highly appreciated. So I found this 2009 D Lincoln cent and I'm wondering if this is a legitimate DDO or just machine doubling. The date seem to be doubled and the earlobe opens up some questions for me. Hope my eyes aren't getting old. lol.. Thanks for your input team.
