I was able to cherrypick this after learning about it. (I posted my graded one that I had bought months ago, after I researched it.) I know this variety is not that popular, which I do not understand since almost every device on the reverse is doubled/thickened pretty extremly and this is the only known DDR listed. So to me it is an over-looked and under-rated variety. So just thought I would share my $15.00 pick. (Goes to my son's collection I have started for him.) So heres a few pics. Thanks for checking it out.

Very nice coin. Damage the dies was a little bit old, if not you can reach the top of those coins. You look at this variety mentioned. Me I will look closer to the Q, if is doubling you has what no one publish yet because only 3 know in private big collection. The hint will be the high of Q up or down the inner O.

Thanks silviosi! They also have a small die chip on the leaf above the stem, you can see in the last picture.

Its been my experience that a set of doubled letters that are obvious are more exciting to people than thick letters. No one can miss a 1955 DDO cent. But a lot of people can miss a DDO or DDR with thicker letters.

This looks like a DDR that will eventually be delisted. Looks more like Die Deterioration. Waiting for one in a stage A.

Thanks Earle42 yep I agree, it is harder to know whats thicker, being new to the hobby I sure have a hard time. Alot of the ones I see listed I just cannot see on the sites. This one I just know. Thanks CentSation, it may be eventually delisted but I still think its interesting and a neat DDR. (Even if it turns out to be DD its still an interesting DD I think.)
