Hi everyone. Came across another coin today that I think might be a possible DDR. I did a little research into it knowing that 1983 has a well known DDR variety, this is definitely not that, I don't think. From what I looked at I think it might possibly be a DDR-002. Or if its possible inbetween 001 and 002. I notice it mostly on "ONE CENT" but also a little bit in "UNITED" and the first "S" in "STATES". Penny isn't in the best condition, but not the worst either. Let me know what you think.

Thank you.

Sorry, this isn't a doubled die. It just shows a bit of Machine Doubling, so nothing special on this one. Keep looking!

Looks like Machine Doubling to me, since the size of the devices have been reduced. A Doubled Die will actually increase the size of the devices, not reduce them.

So how does a machine doubled set of devices match up to a doubled die. Well seeing them side by side tells the whole story:
