    Better photos are needed but don't get your hopes up. Probably not hub doubling.

    Agree, photos are too small to evaluate.
    Need a larger photo of each coin individually plus a closeup of the area that
    you think is doubled otherwise we are guessing.

    I agree with the above forum members.... Large, individual pictures, plus close up of the suspected issue. Cheers, RickO

  • I'll post them right now give me a sec

    The original photos can be enlarged. There is no hint of doubling on either.

    As above: check Variety Vista. If you think you have an exact match, check again.

    Can you point out where you see doubling?

    A 1965 Wheat cent? Better check your title and image.

  • hey Guys.. I know I dropped the ball a few times. lol. but I'm still learning so work with me.. I'm trying. lol. but I'm other news I need ur guys advice.. so I Just came across a Well actually I just Found a 69" penny On the ground. in fairly good condition. except. it doesn't have a mint mark.. but from what I see doubling on both sides. enough to see clearly I think so at least but before I even say anything or post it. I figured id show it here to u all and get ur advice before I look stupid again. I'm not tryna get rich or anything I just find these coins fascinating. and Its like a treasure hunt for me. idk. I like finding rare/ weird things. u know. but yeah.. I'ma post the picture of it. let me know what in u guys think of it and if it has any value or worth keeping ...? thanks for ur patience..

    They are not double dies. They are a combination of machine doubling and die deterioration.

    There is no hint of doubling in any picture posted to this thread so far. The pictures themselves are actually quite good. The first set of pictures were clear, even if a bit small. The latest pictures are even better. There is no doubling whatsoever on those coins.

    Maybe the OP would walk us through what they think is meant by doubling, and how that is shown on these coins?

    1969 cents are very common with the shelf like machine doubling. That is probably what you have.

  • I meant liberty. n also the bottom of "trust" as well along with the year.. if that's not double.. then someone please explain this to me ... thanks

  • and so on the 1956"wheat so the 6 isn't doubled..??

  • I have a few coins from the 60s and up if any of u are looking for some of these newer ones ask me and I might have it. I have a bunch of the 1982.. Penny's aswell. but NOW I'm not sure what too look for in to those. lol I'm serious tho.. 2-"64 nickels.. 1 by-cEnt 25¢.... Penny's from " 60-69"... few 79s n 80s! ? I collect raw coins and savem for a few months if anyone wants them cool if not. ohwel... then I just either use them or if I really like them I'll hold on to them for a bit. but yeah. ask away I might have one that u want.

    It's not hub doubling. 99.9% of "doubling" is machine/ strike doubling or die deterioration doubling. It is incredibly common and carries no premium. Until you know the differences, you are wasting time looking for errors.

    Go to varietyvista.com. look for known varieties that EXACTLY match the pictures.

    STUDY first. You do not know enough about coins to be variety hunting
