Story of the good news and the bad news... Found this MS doubled die in a B/U roll of 1941 cents (the good news). The bad news was it literally was the worst condition coin in the roll (some nice MS-66 coins in there), and it was the only one in there.

Seems like it's been raining these around here lately and finally get my upgrade to MS although not a super pretty one. And Coop, not really certain but does look like some doubling behind the eyelid.

Well it is still a doubled die. Most people would be rejoicing to find this.As Red Green Says: "If women don't find you handsome, hope they find you handy."

Well isn't that a nice predicament to be in. Having two of that variety. Congratulations.

Coop, that is one of my wife's favorite Red Green sayings. Not sure what it really says about me, but at least part of it is a compliment.

Amazing find! Condition was never a huge bother for me, but I have had some rolls where the spottiest coin would have the variety!

Yes!

This is the only '41 DDO I have yet to find, and that's just a cracking specimen. Went to a coin show this past weekend looking for one specifically, found none, but man your example is excellent.
