    2012D Cent

    I finally found my battery charger for my camera. I found this coin to be interesting. I've posted a similar one to this on a 2011 cent but not on multiple bars/letters. At that time there was not much research on shield cents.

    I can only assume that is is either a form of isolated machine doubling or it's a minor doubled die. It would make sense to me in comparison to the memorial doubled column ddr's, however I am not someone to say so. With that, I will leave it open for discussion and reasons why you feel as such.

    As a side note, the 'doubling' is strong under the 'N' in UNUM and then as you move away from it it becomes weaker and weaker until it's no longer visible.

    I'm interested to see your analysis whether you're an expert or not! Have fun with it.

    In my mind, even if this is a doubled die, it is way too difficult to see without significant magnification, and therefore too minor to list.

      I have to agree that there is nothing really significant here.

        Probably mild machine doubling of incuse areas. Interesting. And it reminds me that I have yet to see a Denver 2012 out here in NYC yet...
