Spence Moderator United States 34458 Posts	Posted 05/16/2021 9:06 pm No prob. If you use the keywords DDD and 1955 in the CCF search box, you will see other many other examples of this so-called Poor Man's Doubled Die for comparison.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19288 Posts	Posted 05/16/2021 9:32 pm Yes, the ubiquitous 'poor man's doubled die' Die was in poor shape. Note the emergence of a Ridge Ring. Occasionally, the 'poor mans' will come with nicely cracked skulls. Report this Post to the Staff
