Some of the 1972's are "smack you in the face" doubled, but some are tuff to ID. This one below seems to have extra thickness in many areas and some seperation lines, but lacks major notching - please take a look and enlighten me whether this is a common 1972P or in fact a DDO.

I've been to coppercoins and can't ID from what is there - some things match, but others don't.

I definitely see extra thickness, but could be going crazy.

I believe....but I'm not sure....that the doubling I see on the "N" in IN is from Master Die Doubling I also see a good bit of die deterioration. Here is some info on Master Die Doubling....if you scroll down it specifically references 1972's in length.

Again...I'm not positive...just my thoughts

This is doubling from the master die which appears on the majority of 1972 cents from all three mints. It really is a doubled die but it's too common to have any value.

.... hence the reason I turn to the most knowledgable folks on the web!

Whoever said collecting coins was easy!?! I thought I read the entirety of Wexler's website, but missed that article - thanks Jayman!

Thanks for the detailed input everyone!
