Looking thru a jar of circulated Lincoln's found in change thru the years, I found 2 really nice 42P doubled die coins. I posted this a few weeks ago in coppercoins forum, but wanted to share them here also. It can really pay to search those circulated coins.

    Those are really nice doubled dies. I had the opportunity of submitting the discovery piece of that die to CONECA. To date not one single BU specimen has been located. In fact, you own more of them than anyone I know. I know three people who have one specimen...your two doubles that!

    Hey Chuck, good to hear from you. I have to keep reminding myself to look thru circulated coins also for varieties, not just unc rolls. There are goodies to be found.
