What does doubling in coins mean?

We might call a doubled die coin "double struck" because it was "minted" twice with the same die. This results in a minting error. A date or part of the design can be "repeated" on a coin thus minted. A coin that escapes the quality control screening and makes it out into circulation can be worth some bucks.

A link is provided to the Wikipedia article, below.

If a coin is a double die as a result of the die itself having an inconsistency it is worth far more than a coin that was simply struck twice.

It depends on what you mean by " missstruck" about all coins are known to have striking errors, some of the most common are planchant flaws, off-center strikes and machine doubling. The 1974-D is the only known major doubled-die obverse coin of this series with prominent doubling of the letters RUS in the word trust. I suggest showing it to a dealer or collector for an opinion.

Doubling a number is equivalent to multiplying by 2. Doubling twice (doubling, and then doubling the result again) is equivalent to multiplying by 4. (Also, doubling three times is the same as multiplying by 8, doubling 4 times is the same as multiplying by 16, etc.)
