1947 Lincoln Cent DDO-001

[MintErrors]

I went to my storage unit a few weeks ago and started planning things for my new server build. I needed to know what varieties I currently have in stock and a rough idea of how many. I opened up a box named DDO/DDR and quickly counted the coins within. My eyes caught a coin in a snap tite style holder labeled 1947 DDO. I put that in the box to bring back to the studio before heading home.

I decided to offer photos of this coin, to show some of the people struggling to ID a doubled die. This coin is lightly circulated. In my opinion you can clearly see doubling on some of the devices. I have over 10 photos to show, so it will require a reply to this as well. Enjoy. Hope it brightens up some of them light bulbs.

I have a lot of rpms and doubled dies. Next year, I hope to have plenty of time to educate and eventually sell a lot of these varieties. My goal was to stock pile rpms and doubled dies from 1930s to the 1970s. I think I easily under estimated the potential. Now, it should be fun to liquidate these and focus on something else.

Hello Gary, I am looking at the two pictures of Mr. Lincoln's' beard. The parallel lines at 45 degrees looks to me like some polishing marks. I have seen some like this on Jefferson nickels. Thoughts or comments?

Bruce,

I considered these good markers or pick up points. To me, in my opinion, they are not worth anything other than to cement an attribution. I tried to photograph the tie which has the same condition, but due to the angle, whether i changed angle of lights or coin, it did not come out as planned.
