Went though a box of cents last night wich produced 4 lonly 1950's wheat backs and the pictured 1992. This is the first coin I have found with this extent of extreme doubling present. It is especially noticable directly above E-Pluribus and can also be seen clearly in America and below the O in One on the bottom of the coin. I would like yalls opinions as too whether or not this is a fine example of machine doubling or is in fact a double die error. Which ever side you defend please explain your reasoning so that I may be able to recoginize these in the future. No matter what it turns out to be it is a pretty cool coin.

I also found a 1947-S rossie and a nice off centered 1976 2$ bill yesterday. If any of yall have any ideas on what the 2$ might be worth I would love to hear them. From ebay search im getting any where from $25 - $100???

Thanks for the input guys

Definitely MD. Notice how it's flat and shelflike. Steps down from the letters. Also on true doubling if you take it away from the device the lettering will look normal. MD takes away from the design. True doubling will be on the same level of the design.

Does the size of the note line up with a regular $2 bill? If it doesn't, it could be from an uncut sheet (sold by the mint to collectors over FV) that someone cut up. I think there is a way you can I.D. uncut bills by the serial number (but don't hold me to that).
