Found this while looking at my collection today. Its just machine doubling on the last nine but I have never seen a 1929 S with some doubling.

This is what's referred to as "Die Deterioration Doubling" more so just Die Deterioration. Most notable is the 1955 poor mans.

yeah thats what I was thinking, that it looks the same as the poormans. Still worth keeping tho. I saw a poormans on ebay that was BU going for $50.

And that means someone doesn't know what they are. Because a coin sells for $50 doesn't at all mean it's worth that. The 'poor mans' double coins are not worth a premium value at all. As noted above, they are die deterioration and that's all.

If you would have looked at the bid list for that poorman there were probably 2 bidders trying to see who could get there hind leg the highest.
