[jeffrey1215]

Hey guys, did some half dollar coin roll hunting, and found this. It looks like has a error on "STATES" on the reverse. Double die? Any idea?

This is another one, the "WE TRUST" looks not clear, especially "TR"

The "states" looks like strike doubling, the coin was pushed sideways, hence the "flat" look of the under image. The 72 looks like a double die.

You must have the patience of Job to discover something like that.

I do a quick check. If the one has some thing different, then I will go for detail. Lol, not every coin. Don't have that much time. [emoji23]

Thanks for your information. I agree with you. The first one does not looks not like double die, I saw double die usually all the letters are moved to one side, this one only move angularly.
