Comments:  Because this is a doubled master die, all working dies for the 1968 P, D, and S-Mint proof Roosevelt dimes had this doubling.  Consequently, all 1968 dated Roosevelt dimes have this doubling making it interesting, but worthless.  How well the doubling is seen will vary depending on working hub state, working die state, and coin wear.
