Hello All. Has anyone seen another Roosevelt dime like this? Common? Worthless?

    Those are pretty good photos, note the forum likes to see the entire obverse and reverse first, then the closeups.

    Not an error. Dies chattered when coin was struck is all. Mechanical, machine or sometimes called shelf doubling.

    Machine doubling. It is a rather common occurrence.

    Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

    I would reference you to the Cherrypickers Guide to rare die varieties. They have a very nice section at the back of the book that shows how to differentiate between machine doubling and actual doubling.
