Searched $50.00 (2 boxes) of Lincoln cents this weekend and this is what I found. 8 Wheaties, 1942D,1951D,1952,1955x4,and1956. Also found a 1999 Cent with 3 small cud errors on it and a 1993, and 1989 Cent that looks like the date is doubled. Look at the Pics and let me know if it's machine doubling. Thanks Daffy Very Happy

Nice finds man. Actually, those aren''t cuds, those are die chips. Still neat. The way to tell the difference is cuds only happen on the rim area, and die chips can be through out. Still neat though, and worth a few bucks to the right person. The 89 and 93 cent look like MAchine Doubling to me. Nice finds man.

phoenix21, you are correct. thanks, I was cross-eyed after looking at 2 boxes. kind of dissapointed that no real good finds showed up. I like to find these variations but real die doubling and machine doubling looks alot alike to me. Although, I found alot of 1970-2007 coins that looked like they just come out of mint rolls. Thanks again, best Daffy Very Happy

nice finds imdaffy! Cool  i'd save the 1982 and older cents that look like they just came out of mint rolls becuase i have a feeling people are going to start to look for the shiny older copper ones for their collections.

As Phoenix says, those are die chips.  I wish I had time to roll search this holiday season, sigh.
