Get outta here!!.........Really nice!! Did you find it? 👍🏻 👍🏻
Yes, while CRH'ing several years ago and it's actually my second one. The first one was in my pocket change way back in 1987 and I sold it right away. I've been looking for others ever since. It only took a little over 30 years!

What a minute. Is a doubled die an error or variety?
Why can't it be both? It's a variety since it a defect in the die and all coins struck from this die will show this defect and it's an error because it was an unintentional mistake to make a die with doubling.

Edited per Oakstar's question.
Doubled Dies are varieties. They alter the normal design on the die and all coins struck by it will show the anomaly.
Doubled Dies are varieties. An issue in the die-making process altered the normal design on the die and all coins struck by it will show the anomaly. This is not always done in error, such as the many overdates seen on 17th and 18th century coinage, the Wisconsin extra leaf quarters, etc.

So they altered the normal 55 design on the die and now it shows this anomaly???
Bad choice of words. An issue with the die making process altered the design on the die itself, causing all coins to be struck by it to show the variety. This is not always done in error, such as the many overdates seen on 17th and 18th century coinage, the Wisconsin extra leaf quarters, etc.
Mint errors occur to the coin, not the die, during the manufacturing process and while many may be similar, they are all techincally one-offs.

I like the holder almost as much as the coin - what a great early PCI slab.

While I agree that the early PCI slabs were attractive, my limited experience with them has not left me a fan. When still "paying tuition" in this hobby, I bought a 1914-D Lincoln cent in an old PCI slab, graded VF20. I was never convinced that the grade was correct; when I upgraded and sent the PCI slab to Great Collections to sell, (i) they told me that they don't sell PCI slabs, so they gave me the choice of getting the coin back or sending it to be graded at PCGS; (ii) PCGS graded it F15. Not a bad experience, since I had my doubts (and I did net a few dollars more than I had paid for it originally--yes, duly reported to the IRS), but I'll be staying away from PCI slabs of any stripe.

I am by no means an expert, but I have heard that the early green holders with 10-digit codes tend to be accurately or even slightly under-graded. They also had a habit of turning white silver coins shades of orange and brown. You cannot sell them on eBay either, unless you obscure the grade on the insert, so I don't see many of them around any more.
