    Thoughts? 1969 S. Machine doubling?

    Ok came across this and asking (nicely) lol. What are your thoughts. I'm thinking machine doubling. Liberty is the only thing doubled as far as I've seen either side.
    Thank you in advance.171106_225920.jpg171106_230011.jpg

        Yes it is MD.

        Still, if you take some good big pics of liberty and put it on ebay and say it's MD someone might buy it for more than some doubled dies sell for. It's the sort of thing that has no value to some of us but some bidders might fight over it because it's pretty extreme and on a 69-S even though that date is full of MD

          Yeh, I've come to realize that, for me anyway, the more obvious something is, the more likely it is to be MD of one sort or another.
          It has taken me at least five years of pretty intense and obsessive collecting/searching to pick out the subtle clues that help answer questions I come up with for certain coins.
          I can't begin to imagine all the "valuable" (yeh right ) LC I have stashed away from just a couple of years ago.
          I'm pretty confident they are at least copper!

              Sounds like you'll be busy.
              You're going to have a lot people here drooling at the thought of a 40 year old stash!
              And best of luck with your eyesight with so many to look at.

                    I will definitely keep you posted!! I was just floored when he said it had never been searched for varieties. That's kinda like getting a pony as a kid and never getting to ride it!! Lol

                      That's not to bad... Wait till you wake up with coins stuck in your ears, nose and a few other places I can't mention

                          Thanks guys. I appreciate it. I had a silly thought. If you got a tattoo of a Lincoln cent, what year and variety would you choose? Can only pick one. GO!!

                            I'd have to go with the 55P! What about you?
