1986 d penny double die?

[Hightek]

Hi, I just pick up another box this weekend and found this 1986 d penny. The date and mint mark looks like it's doubling. Any idea if this is a double die or just pmd.

I tried but the closer I get my camera lose focus..how do you guys take a close one picture so clear?

With my phone i set it the coin on paper then take a book or cup and let the camera hang off cause then it is stable and you can focus/zoom easier.

See if there is a "macro" focus option in your settings. Remember to change back to "auto" focus after taking the close up.

Not a Double die. It is either die wear, or zinc rot... Trust me I had a same looking coin with the mint mark looking like a double die, when i asked on another forum they told me it was zinc rot..

I heard from another forum saying its plate splitting. Is this a error worth keeping?

It's caused by a very worn die. Also, the correct term is "doubled" die. No more than face value.
