I found this one at back in December and included images of it in this post: http://goccf.com/t/304195

I decided to create a separate topic to discuss this coin. What do you think, is it a DDR, UFO, or something else? I mailed it out to Wexler to see what he thinks, haven't gotten it back yet.

It is going to be interesting to see what Mr. Wexler says about this coin. I have one that is somewhat similar on a 1998 but it is down near the steps. Still Lookin

Here is one that coppercoins listed, but later determined it was not a DDR"

Quote:

2004P-1DR-003 | UNKNOWN (MDS)
CONECA: UNKNOWN | Crawford:UNKNOWN
Wexler: UNKNOWN | FS#:UNKNOWN
coin photographed is credited to Bob Piazza.
THIS LISTING IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. What appears to be an extra column top appears at the top right area of memorial bay #6. This anomaly does not duplicate any area of the memorial that can be determined. It may in fact be a die chip, dent or gouge. It may be listed by other attributers, but at this time, my opinion is that it is definitely NOT a doubled die.


Wexler did list this one:
2005-LMC-DDR-Or-Ufo?

Quote:
2004 1¢ WDDR-007 "Best Of" Variety

Description: A strongly doubled arch shows on the top left side of the 7th Memorial column. Extra thickness shows on the Memorial steps.

There's not really a good explanation to why it happened, so I'm gonna say it a UFO.

Just got the results back from Wexler.

Coin #8 is 2005 1¢ WDDR-099 which is a new listing for my files. I like this one!


I think he likes this one.

A VERY interesting doubled die as it is so unique compared to the other known LMC DDRs. I'm glad I was able to find it and bring it to light.

Congratulations on the new listing! It's amazing that it's an unlisted Doubled Die Reverse. Very interesting one too!
