To CCF! Incredible find! This DDR is extremely rare and there's not very many known. It's worth a ton of money! Levelsofmadnes found one a while back. I can't find the post at the moment though. These estimates values are outdated probably. http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/dies...ie_state=mdsErrers and Varietys.

Upon reading your title I just shook my head in disbelief. This is a very rare doubled die, and I only know of one other person who has found it-levelsofmadness. Quite an incredible find! Well done!  -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage

Etako808 to CCF! Congratulations on your find. Value... I think you can get $3K plus for it. Here is some communication from Great Collections (I hope Ian does not mind): Do you still have your 1982 DDR that you consigned to us 6 months ago?
If so, I'd love another chance at auctioning it for you. Please let me know.
I have a few serious collectors looking for it at the moment.
Sincerely,
- IanI had mine listed at Great Collections and the starting bid was $3000.00. I had no bidders. |

to CCF. Very nice. I would send it off to PCGS. $3,000 seems very high to me,but it is a rare find. Congrats on your find and I am jealous. John1  |

Excellent find. There's no 2nd guessing on that one. Congratulations on finding an extremely rare variety.
(And congrats to LOM for standing their ground on the value. That's a great way to build interest and value. If you don't mind me asking, when did you receive that request from GC and what part of the US are you in? I see the OP is in Hawaii.)
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

First, welcome to CCF with your extraordinary first post! As suggested, you should send this off to TPG and get it slabbed. Edited by Chase007

@Petespockets55, I am located in Florida and the date of that email from GC was 14 Dec 2019. @Etako808, I agree on getting that coin graded by a TPG company. Congrats once again  |
