Any one know if there is a double die 1962 nickel. I found a nickel in my change what caught my eye since it was in such good shape. (High au, low unc) The 62 of 1962 shows doubling to the lower left side. I would try posting a picture but no way with my set up could I get a shot of that.

There was a doubled die reverse on the 1962-D. Look at the UNITED and E PLURIBUS UNUM, look for strong doubling of the letters with bold notches in serifs. I don't know how much the error is worth though. That does not mean there can't be errors in the other 1962's also, this is just the one that has the most.

Should have mentioned this is a philli. There is slight what appears to be mechanical doubling along the UNITED STATES. Nothing really showing on the serifs.

You would need someone to look at it. I haven't heard anything on the P mint.
