atrox001 Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 02/07/2018 1:47 pm I think you have some die doubling and MDD as well on your half. I think using the doubling on the E of WE is good indicator for the 72D DDO-001, also a couple of good markers that I have on the two DDO-001's from my collection would be the die scratch north-south above the mintmark on the obverse and the north-south die scratch top left of the 3rd ray of the reverse, see photos. Note: I think what you show on the profile of your half dollar would be MDD, and the photo from Wexler's site is misleading and looks like MDD also to me. My examples of the 72D DDO-001 don't show any doubling on the profile at all. Larry Nienaber Report this Post to the Staff

I do have Two examples of the 72 DDO-001 and both with no doubling on the profile, perhaps that was the only example Wexler had at the time and missed out on the profile being a MDD. No one's perfect I guess Report this Post to the Staff
USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 07/20/2018 9:47 pm piercethegrimes- Your 72-D is absolutely a DDO. The right leg of the R in Trust totally gives it away. ! Nice find indeed! Report this Post to the Staff
