    doubling as in which type?

    some coins have doubling which is cut into the die...this is referred to as a double die <<< carry premiums...sometimes small...sometimes huge

    some coins bounce after being minted back into the die...this is referred to as strike doubled or machine doubled <<< usually carry no premium

    something someone new to coins should study the differences in those 2

    some double die coins have yet to be discovered

    coneca online carries a good resource as most report their finds to this outfit

    as to your 1865 3cent nickel....i'm clueless....pcgs price guide has a boxed + in front of dates which have to of been known and accepted by them as varieties they give credit to
    this date shows no "+"
    everything in life is but merely on loan to us by our appreciation....lose your appreciation and see


  • Pics coming.Don't own coin but do have it.Let me know if it's right...........
