'70 doubled date is the one with a scratch to right of the zero. my blade did that cutting coin from a glued 2X2
I'm assuming the fifth coin down on the left is the doubled die. I see absolutely no doubling on the coin. As for the greaser with one dot missing, that's not enough detail to give it any value.

I assume there is no dispute on the die crack '72, the floating roof is in-disputable at 25X mag., the 64-D missing dot is a depression, as in filled die, the '70 doubled date is clear at 25X. best photos I can get with the 16MP digital. a few more errors to be presented on 8/17--a clad half with reeding on the face, a nickel "D" MM "variety?". the half will GUARANTEE create a bunch of opinions----just believe your lyin' eyes!!

Nope, no dispute on the Die Crack '72 and the floating roof on the Reverse of the '70-S is indisputable. However, while they are collectible and have some value, neither have a lot of value above face value. I can't tell much about '70 Double Date, so can't be sure as to the cause. It could be a simple matter of Die Chatter (a quick hit again on the planchet after being struck by the Die due to a burp in the hydraulics of the Minting Press which is usually caused by air trapped in the system) but since I can't see what you see, I have no way of knowing the exact cause.

I am sorry if I and others have been hard with our assessment of the coins you showed but I tell it as I see them and I don't have lying eyes! Most of all, I do my best to give my best assessment and honest opinion about a coin or multiple coins and never lie about anyone's coin or coins. I do however make mistakes as I am only human and not like my childhood hero at the video below.:icon_biggrin:
