twslisa Pillar of the Community United States 790 Posts	Posted 11/29/2022 4:12 pm Was going through a roll of SBAs from my mom's coins, and I am pretty sure the first one is a DDO. The second isn't as clear but the way the letters flow together makes me think so. Let me know what you guys think. 1st coin 2nd coin Report this Post to the Staff

twslisa Pillar of the Community United States 790 Posts	Posted 11/29/2022 4:44 pm I think you're right, after a closer look. What had me fooled was the U and O in the first set of photos—looked like doubling. But the way the letters flow together in some places make it pretty clear. Here are some better pix.

Not a premium, but you might save this coin for a Show and tell Item for a new collector? CoopHome: What does extreme die wear look like on a SBS dollar coin? the devices will widen and show extreme die wear on these dies. not a premium, but an education for your eyes to remember what they look like.
