Kevin Flynn Auction Of Certified Die Varieties At Heritage Auctions

I notice they have changed all the "double die" references to Doubled Die. Kudos to Heritage for fixing that.

It took me about a 6 months to put all of this together, including a pdf for all the die variety sections for all of the books, it was almost like writing a book. Heritage did an incredible job putting it into their format and working with me.

There is a second auction for the certified non die varieties, this includes a 1974D Silver Ike in MS62
I kept my OMMs and my offcenter and a few of my off denomination clashes as these were my favorite
I also have a lot of uncertified die varieties that I have to figure out how to sell

I didn't see this post when it came out last month. I picked up your 1876 Seated Liberty quarter MPD-002 with the 8 and the 7 below in the denticles last night at auction. I was not going to let that one go! I have a few varieties for that date. But, the MPD-002 has been a tough one for me to find. I also just picked up your book... Two Dates Are Better Than One, A Collector's Guide To Misplaced Dates. With over 500 pages I'm sure I'm going to be fascinated by it when it arrives and then find myself branching out into MPD collecting in an array of different series as a result. So I thank you in advance.

Yes. There. Were.

Awesome coins last night and I managed to hang onto two of the 15 I bid on. I got in early (and low) so I could follow ones that were of interest to me.
I ended up with:
-1961 D/Horizontal D Memorial cent (ANACS MS64). There were a number of those, so I figured I stood a chance.
-1956-D/D 1C Repunched Mintmark, RPM-008, FS-508, MS64 Red ANACS (Which happens to be a plate coin)

Thanks Kevin and best of luck in your future pursuits.

Glad you were able to find something you needed. That is a nice bold digits in the denticles. MPDs have not really taken off, but IMO that is good news as they are super cool and still can be found. I believe there were about 400 MPDs listed in the book, but a major part of the book was dedicated to trying to figure out how they happened.
One note I remember, they seemed to be much less frequent during every 20th year, such as 1890 1900, which leads to the conclusion that there was increased quality control during those years. They are obviously a dramatic mistake/offset when viewing through a scope, but usually off by 1/10 of an inch on the die.

Lessons learned in auctioning
When auctioning coins, learn what the Buyer's Premium is. Most are 20%, but if below a certain value, will be fixed. Heritage was $29 BP if below 150 I believe. If you have coins below this level, you should combine into lots to achieve above that level. I had about 60 Kennedy half dollar doubled dies, most were valued about $30, many were only bid on at $1, others were not bid on at all.
