Unlike the multi-hubbed dies, this is what the Die Deterioration looks like on the single squeeze die dies. Because of the lower profile, they distort like you coin. On the right side of the date, left side of LIBERTY and the tops on the motto. (closest direction to the rim)  No premium for these as all the VLDS dies will show them in that direction. |

Have found many from different years which look similar. Been storing them in a coin tube.

I would keep just one. The strongest one and replace it when you find a better one.

Alright so if the doubling occurs on the same side of the rimedge its considered a worn die.....
Is it a true doubled die when the doubling occurs away from the rimedge?

On a doubled die reverse Memorial cent die wears, the lines we see on the outsides of devices can disappear, But the hub doubling on the EPU may still be seen. I've found and prefer earlier die states of coins for doubled dies for that reason. Note the doubling on this attributed die: http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=edsThat area is where the die shows wear first. So when this die ages, it disappears first and makes the DDRs harder to spot. Note on this coin the hub doubling on the outside edge of the devices is weaker than the doubling on devices at the top of the devices.  All subject to die wear. |
