This is common die deterioration doubling and not "doubling" at all .... it's from worn dies. Take a look at the smorgasbord of great info on various coin "doublings". Lots of links:

Re: 1989 D Lincoln Memorial Cent with Doubling error
As I have offered similarly on other coins site, and many times on this site, I will attach a link that explains many types of "doublings" that are NOT doubled dies. Everyone should keep a copy of this, with great illustrations, along with other Wexler writings and studies. All of his info on errors...

Re: 1858 1 cent opinions
The photos aren't clear enough to ID which Reverse that you actually have with Turner numbers and percent of dies used. Do you have any die cracks on the Reverse? Can't see any on the Reverse. There were nearly 50 reverse dies used and Turner has ID'd them all, but hard to tell yours from the photos...

Re: Stanley Cup, dollar
I'd say mechanical doubling or die deterioration doubling. They've been discussed on here many time. They are NOT varieties and many don't even condider them errors, just crappy QC.

Re: 1858 1 cent opinions
You've got the word "vine" confused. The vine is the large, thick line that snakes around between the beads and the denticles and has stems that attach the leaves. Only the first 2 dies Maybe 3) had full stems. The rest all had a vine break at 13, then one showed at 7 and, finally at 2. The photos a...

Re: 1975 nickel damaged
Even though it's nickel, it has been exposed to chemical environmental damage and corrosion. There's nothing that causes any of that from the mint. It has been eaten away from the inside out, hence the weight, it may be physical damage that started it all off.

Re: 2023 quarter
Well, you do also have some machine/mechanical doubling like you thought. It still loks like a clash to me, maybe the tie-down on his ponytail? I'm not sure how the dies are set for the 25c coinage. The edges are too flat & congruent to be chips.

Re: 2023 quarter
To me, the "M" looks like a clash, but I can't see where on the Obv that it could have come from ...... an "E"?

Re: 1967 and 1979 US quarters
One had a billion minted and the other 500 million. There is no value and each worth about 33 cets Cdn. They are just normal clad coinage with no collector value.

It looks like some one pounded another coin on top of it on the Obverse. Need better, clearer photos.

There used to be a member of the Hamilton Coin Society last year who was an avid collector of shinplasters, but forgot the name. Maybe a call to them or their website may help.

Yes, slightly offcenter core, but Cac shows that it's not uncommon. I'd like to see a closeup of the D:

Yes, they are. Just go to his website: https://www.victoriancent.com and click on books. The latest are also availble directly from the RCNA if you are a memeber. For your specific coin, he has a separate one just on the '92 and '94 dies. I loaned him many of those dated coins for his research. He i...

Re: 1892 Canada Large Cents
Well, I go by the photos and verbiage in Rob Turner's "Dies and Diadems" where it covers the Obverses from 1890 to 94, so technically I may be wrong with Charlton. The switch to a slightly different Queen image (hair, brow, crown) affected the 1892's, so you had Obv 2, 3 or 4. I have always used, an...
