Ya know, when you look for too long, too closely, the mind tends to see things...its called "eye strain", well, unless other factors like pain meds  or "wacky tabackee"  , or...  Just one of the many kind of weird hits and effects.

Well sometimes the odd things can redirect our attention from the prize. Hard to confirm with current images, but think I see extra thickness in the motto, liberty and date. After checking around a bit we may want to compare closer to DDO-001. MM location seems spot on. Thanks, Doug. http://www.varietyvista.com/01a%20L...1SDDO001.htm

I agree that it might be a DDO.

Mark, Class 6 doubled dies don't resemble your "typical" doubled die with separation lines and notches. It's all about thickness to the devices and distortion. I agree, the mint mark style is correct. It's MMS-004 (Trumpet Tail), not MMS-002 (Small S). The thickness is easily seen. Also, the MM placement looks spot on, as Halo and Tanman said to begin with. I think it's DDO-001. Here is a link to San Francisco mint mark styles for anyone that hasn't found it: http://varietyvista.com/01b%20LC%20...20Styles.htm

Marky Mark,
I don't care what you collect. I surely doesn't "make me mad." I said it was San Francisco mint mark style 004 (MMS-004). It's DDO-001. Looks like it pisses you off that others collect what they like. Tough cookies.

Guys! Let's argue somewhere else about whether or not people should collect minor doubled dies or not. We are probably confusing centavo69 about what he has.
To centavo69: 1. The "6" you see above Lincolns head is not a 6, it's just dirt, a stain, or some other blemish on your coin.
2. Your coin is a minor doubled die, which specialist collectors would want. So hold on to it.

 So what if it's a minor Doubled Die! Good for him that he found something. I collect minor Doubled Dies as well.
