I was looking thru roll's that I had from a couple of year's ago. I was checking 69 S roll. I saw this coin and litteraly fell out of my chair from falling backward's. I don't know what the 69 S is suppose to look like so here are the picture's.

Rhubarb.. your coins is one of the very common machine doubling that is often mistaken for the real doubled die. Here is a picture of the date of a true 1969-S DDO.

Rhubarb, just wanted to let you know you are not the only one who bruised your buns falling out of a chair for that one. When I first started into varieties I began by looking at some 1969s rolls I inherited from an aunt. I literally have a roll just like yours in mint condition. The only thing that hurt more than falling out of the chair was falling back to earth when I found sites like coppercoins and learned about machine doubling. Sad Mad
