I once purchased two rolls of 1964-D Kennedy half dollars. 19 of the coins were RPM-002 and 20 were DDO-001 (Tripled Die). One coin was a more minor DDO. I purchased several boxes of 2009 FY cents for resale and peeked through the holes in the box and saw a few of the rolls had one of the top varieties so I opened the box. It contained over 1000 doubled dies spread out among seven different dies, with most being from one of two dies. The box only contained two of the Skeleton Fingers.

On the 1969-S, one way we can ascertain that most were probably destroyed (if many were made) is the absence of any quantity being found in any of the bags or rolls. The most I'm aware of in a roll is one coin. The fellow from Michigan who found two, found them in two separate rolls.

This part of the PCGS article is also wrong.

A true 1969-S Doubled Die Obverse cent will not have doubling on the mintmark as the mintmark was punched into the die separately.


I have seen at least one genuine 69-S DDO with Machine Doubling on the mintmark.

This was one of the ones in that roll:

There were other different varieties also in the roll beside this die number. (not part of the 19 mentioned)
There was a doubled die on the bust as well. Here is a side by side:
