Posts: 33
First of all I would like to say hello to every one! I am new to collecting and have learned quite a bit from this forum. That being said my question is about a 1986 proof set that I have. On the penny the s mint mark appears to be doubled and on the dime there is clear doubling on the back of the ear and on the back of the neck.I cannot find any info on any errors for the 86 proof set and thought maybe someone here could help. Thanks

An actual doubled die would also be raised. Machine doubling has a shelf-like appearence.
I think I got that right.
like the real thing. May be a trick of the light.

Can we all partake of that 86 proof of yours?

Enjoy the day.........
you should certainly do what Ken and others have suggested and seek out the opinion of an aknowledged expert in addition to that of members. i once sent an 1898 IHC to member Shylock after posting a thread about it and he forwarded it to Rick Snow to get anther opinion. after it's cross-country journey, the coin made it safely home. do whatever you need to do if you feel you have something, but it appears to be machine doubling for the reasons explained above.

i think it is machine doubleing also
