i recently posted a comment, to a thread asking for grade opinions about his 09 VDB 1DO-002. I didn't contribute a grade opinion, but I commented that two of the die characteristics of the DD, were not visible (to me). the original poster pointed out that the identifiers were the die breaks in liberty.

earlier I posted my 09 VDN 1DO-002, and some people questioned whether it was in fact the 1DO-002, even though all of the die markers were present and matching.

my question is - does the presence of the die breaks in liberty - only, establish that it is the DD.

i would think that a coin, in late enough die state, would also have the other die markers as well.

i am not questioning, whether or not that other coin is - or is not the DD, but rather, am I miss understanding how to identify this specific doubled die.

also along the way someone posted a link to a site which gave more clear, precise images - whith more die state information about thes DD. can anyone help me to locate that site again.

thanks

One cannot rely on markers alone for variety attributions. The doubling must be there first. The die breaks in the B and R in Liberty are common and do not by themselves make a 1909 VDB a DDO #2.
