Michael C Valued Member United States 219 Posts	Posted 11/27/2019 10:34 am Found this last night in one of those old Wheat penny rolls and was reading a guy's post on here about getting a good deal on this coin but a DDO. My coin isn't in good condition but I noticed it had all the same markers. Maybe someone on here with a good eye can tell me I'm seeing things. His should be bottom 2 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/27/2019 10:40 am Not sure what kind of markers you are referring to, but a marker is only important if the hub doubling is present. Yours is a normal coin. His is a doubled die obverse. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/27/2019 11:40 am Not the same obverse dies. Note the different positions of the bust tips relative to the "1" in the date. to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog 11/27/2019 11:40 am Report this Post to the Staff
Michael C Valued Member United States 219 Posts	Posted 11/27/2019 12:02 pm Dang coin frog that's to technical for an Italian but If your talking about the tip on the top of the one I noticed it but when up close my coin has a glob of black greese type stuff that makes it seem like they're a lot closer than they are. I'm sure you're right though Report this Post to the Staff

The doubled letters are what you should look for first, then you can look for die markers. Keep in mind that die markers will be gouges, die cracks, die chips etc. Not stains, scratches or toning.
