I found this 1972-d penny that looks very similar to a few of the DDO varieties. I am fairly new to this so any and all opinions are most appreciated to help me in my learning process. Thank you in advance for the help

to CCF. Looks like master die doubling,not a true doubled die. It is very common that year.

It looked very similar to the 1972 DDO FS107 Class I rotated hub doubling. Mine is not the case? these next pics are from wrexler's variety list. They just looked really alike, however I am still really new to this so I am learning as I go along.

If you could post your pics rotated properly and add a pic of WE,that might help. Use the search box,upper left of page for a ton of info on the 1972 LMC master die doubling.

Looks like 1972-D DDO-004 from the mint mark location:

The clue for me that it was not a master die issue is the '9' in the date:

Although it is not listed in the image above, the shape of the '9' was the tip off that is is a doubled die.

I believe you have a genuine DDO, and the doubling appears stronger than the master doubling seen across all three mints on this date.

I took a look at the CONECA Variety Vista master listing, for 1972-D there is only one die listed with clockwise doubling, they reference it as DDO-002 2-O-I-CW. They list six die stages, yours appears to be am earlier one as in later stages the top of the O in GOD is polished away.

You can submit the coin to CONECA for attribution, I will leave to others still active in the club to advise how.
