1962 silver roosevelt dime

[Miss kimm]

I found this 1962 roosevelt dime in a coin roll....it is 90% silver....it appears the 1, 9, 6, and 2 are doubled but i cannot find it in any listings. Is it a double die? Or strike doubling? Thank you in advance....miss kimm. I will post a clearer image shortly.

Need better pictures

Even though the quality of the photos needs to be better, looks like Machine Doubling . . .

I agree with both .

I do not see a doubled die coin in these images.

[Miss kimm]

I understand that a double die adds to the detail and strike doubling takes the detail away?

[Miss kimm]

Thank you so much for the diagrams....they really help a lot....really cool....

[SensibleSal66]

I thank him for the Diagrams as well. I also want to correct you on something . It's Doubled Die NOT Double Die . The doubling is on the die itself not double struck .

[Miss kimm]

I knew that....all the same....thank you....

In Daniels reply to this post he says doubled die as well...i guess thats where i got if from.....

[Miss kimm]

In Daniels reply to this post he says doubled die as well...i guess thats where i got if from.....lots of books also refer to them as a double die and although Ive only been investigating coins for 3 years this spring i do know the die is what causes doubling... Daniel....what do you see? Anything?I want to know....I need to know....strike doubling?thank you.

I live in portland oregon now but i grew up in akron ohio....they had a bad plane crash last week...dont know where portsmouth is? Maybe i will see you this summer....buy some coins....

Please reread my post. I said I DON'T see a doubled die, your images are not good enough for attribution and you can't attribute a coin based on a partial image of said coin. It is the reason I tell people to do research, try to find a match at CONECA or doubledie.com. If you can't find it then you're wasting time posting in forums since you need to send to someone who accepts submissions and attributes varieties for collectors.

[Miss kimm]

So i asked you what you did see and you never said....i misunderstand your website....if we are not experts you really treat people like they are dumb...i feel you dont have patience ffor new coin hunters or collectors...we look to you for your expertise and your comments are like you dont wish to waste your time with such idiots...if you are guiding us then please guide us....but you say nothing about what it may be...i understand you wish to see the entire coin ...my bad...but you could see what is there and make your educated guess....all you did was try to make me look stupid...not the first time...your website should be for experts only because you dont want to show patience with beginners...you dont have the time...you probably dont realize this but keep an open mind...we are trying our best...like the post where he said youre misunderstanding us...we are not purposely doing whatever it is that upsets you and i know some things we day and do bother you off cause youve explained this in your posts...realize that people look to you with respect and want to be an expert as well but we are learning from you or trying to...i dont know what else i can say except to be opened minded to ones efforts when posting on your excellent website...thank you Daniel....

Miss Kimm...
A couple, I think, honest misunderstandings here - I will go with the coin related one first:

The thing you are not understanding here, if not familiar with coin doubling types, is that the photos you show do not allow us to determine what kind of doubling there may be. There is legit, collected doubled die doubling, but there are also other types of mechanical or stress doubling that is worthless. We cannot see this from your pictures to tell you whether you have something good or not.

The other thing you are missing is that Daniel runs this website, runs a youtube channel where he makes/edits a video almost every day, and also has his full time business in the coin shop. Add this to also having a life outside of the coin business and his time is at a premium.

What you are mistaking for being rude is simply being brief. After all, he has this forum for people like us to come to for free doesn't he? That costs him money and the very fact he has this forum shows he is a helping person instead of one thinking he is better than other people.

Put yourself in his shoes. We get a LOT of questions here on this forum from many people. I personally have the time normally to type out things like this post b/c I am disabled at home, and the internet is one of the main things I can do (hence I spend time learning here and also helping collectors when I can). But Daniel is very rushed.

Please do not take a lack of a verbose reply as being a insult. Typing cannot express the emotional state of anyone, hence people make this mistake often when someone is rushed and trying to offer free advice on a free forum while also living a life outside the forum.

I admit sometimes I get wearied myself of answering the same thing to so many new posts by different people. But its the nature of the beast. There are a lot of newbies out there finding similar worthless items (a very few get something good!) that all get the same answer. Do that a couple hundred times a month and you would find yourself also becoming brief in comments while prioritizing other things in your life you depend on for your living. Brevity becomes a natural thing in a situation like this.

If you met Daniel in real life, you would find the last thing on his mind would be to make someone feel stupid. He is the friendly and helpful person you see in his videos. IF there were more than 24 hours in a day, he would maybe write books instead of posts like I do :))

Please understand the above and don't feel slighted.

Thanks Earle.

Kimm, thanks for being rude to me. You have no idea what kind of person I am, but I will not help you your way. I am not being forced into helping you in emails or with huge paragraphs of explanations. Watch my videos and read wexlers doubleddie.com and error-ref.com instead of attacking me personally. I will just remove you next time. I do way too much good.

Your upset because I wont help you on your terms and in emails. You also stated I said this coin was a doubled die and I did not. You're in the wrong and I will not tolerate any further rudeness from you.
