Expert: - 7/12/2007


Question
I recently found a dime that appears to have a small amount of doubling inside the ear. I had read on the pcgs website that the mint has recognized the 2004D as having some double dies. I can't seem to find any information on it. If you could give me description of the error, or lead me to the right source, that would be great. It seems to be doubled in the lower part of the ear inside the ear. it is extremely small, and being a circulation coin, it may even be a small scratch, although it seems really uniform.

Answer
Hi Mark,
I remember seeing something about double ear 2004 cents, but not dimes.  Check with error expert KEN POTTER.  He has a website although I do not know the address, do a search by his neame and I am sure you can find him.
