    1969S Doubled Date?

    Is the date and mint mark doubled? I got it in an uncirculated bank roll I ordered. I'm not banking on it cause I don't have the best track record spotting 'em lol but what do ya'll think? My first thought was MD but something told me I need to ask and make sure lol so here I am

    Yes you got it right.

    Very typical of MD to show the same on the date and mintmark.

    It can show only on one area but when it shows on both in the same direction then you know it's MD since the mintmark was punched after the die was made so it's like lightning hitting the same spot twice to have a DDO then an RPM with the same spread and direction.

    Those 69-S are big teasers, there are a lot with massive MD.
