Sandon Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Based on the photos, your 1976-D Type 2 Bicentennial Eisenhower dollar exhibits shelf-like "strike doubling", also known as machine or mechanical doubling, not a doubled die. See Double Dies vs. Machine Doubling | NGC (ngccoin.com). Coins featuring strike doubling, which results from a die being loose in the press, are very common and worth no premium. Your coin has strange looking surfaces and an odd, incomplete rim. I'm not sure that it is genuine in the first place. Counterfeits of even very common coins like this are being produced in Asia. Here are photos of a typical genuine coin of this issue that PCGS graded MS 65: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, this Ike is rare, if not unique. Behold the crater on the right side of the bell left behind by a meteorite strike amidships and adjacent to the three similarly-sized strikes on the lunar surface.

There is wear, a two-by-four taken to the president's face -- and that as yet unexplained meteorite strike to the bell. Abdulah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
