Can't get on line with my computer. It works fine, just can't connect with WiFi anymore. Seems that I need newer version computer. So hopefully I can get this issue resolved. I'm using my phone now. Not as handy as a computer though.

Probably be offline for a while. My older computer is falling out of grace to be updated for my online services. So I'll be limited on comments until I get the issues fixed.

Or clear nail polish. This was added before the coin had lost it the BU look. Thus why it is still showing below the addition on the coin. Not a plus, just an altered surface on the coin.

It is a split plating issue. I feel machine doubling is other what causes this to happen from the die movement after the strike. (Note the MD on the Left side of the devices?)

More of an educational coin. Showing how the Ridge ring progresses on the die wear. Not a premium, but an educational piece to add to you "Show and Tell" coin to show to a new collector. (great example, but just a face value coin)

The initials are showing a die crack, but also a die chip or two. If the base is solid, and doesn't press downwards with a toothpick, it maybe a second die chip. The areas showing gray to through the plating is where the plating has rubbed off this coin. So the biggest take away on this coin is know the differences. Probably not a premium for the coin, but the education will be stored in your memory. You might save this as an educational coin to show to a new collector to help him in his training for what is going on with the coins we find.

Everything thing is normal The Machine doubling on Liberty and the Die wear is showing above the devices on the motto. The DDR is affected on these areas:
1958-D DDO-001 The reason all the other devices look like your coin, it that the description tells you what to look for on this variety. All the other devices are normal. They are used for identifying what die state the examples are in.

Description: Light spread on lower B of LIBERTY and upper 9 of date.


Coppercoins listing is 1958D-1DO-001 for this listing:
https://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln...ie_state=mds


http://www.varietyvista.com/01a%20L...8DDDO002.htm
Shows on the bottom of the 'B' On Liberty on the DDO-002.

Quote:
Description: Light spread on lower B of LIBERTY.

Coppercoins match is : 1958D-1MM-009
https://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln...ie_state=mds
Thus you will have to note the areas where the hub doubling is present on these listings. All the other devices will be mostly normal. Your coin is a normal coin example. It doesn't show the hub doubling, making the DDO for that year.

CoopHome: Why is my coin not a certain listing? All the other devices look the same?"
a doubled die is identified by the hub doubling on the die. if the die is normal, it will not show the hub doubling. Also another clue when matching doubled dies are the location of the mintmarks on the pre 1990 coins. not the same location as the listed one? not that doubled die. If the mintmark was a match, the hub doubling would also have to be a match first. So a doubled die is noted by the hub doubling on the die, thus the termed "Doubled Die." Without the hub doubling it could be machine doubling or die wear. But the hub doubling on the coin has to be a match in order to be a doubled die.

Note the weakness on the reverse. It is a die cud on the obverse. (I also questioned it until I saw the reverse image with the weakness opposite that area.

On the 1909 cents the 'R' doesn't show that mark on the 1102. I was checking for the top of the 'R' wondering if it was altered, but it is normal for that year:

The markers on the 'R' was not on the three examples from PCGS examples.

Bottom image. Not the oblong '0' on the date.

Die chips on the Liberty area.
Bottom image. The upper images are for the 1101 DDO. Why the extra numbers instead of 101 and 102? Because these are VDB dies on the 1101,1102. Without the VDB would be the DDO-101, DDO-102.

Wexler only has one listed for that year
http://www.doubleddie.com/1570097.html
No listing for that year on Variety Vista
http://www.varietyvista.com/07%20Ro...Listings.htm

As mentioned, it is die abrasion on that area of the die. When part of the die gets polishing into the deeper design, the edge can be affected and make it raised on the coins struck with die. But the die was altered post creation of the die. So it is not hub doubling, but a reduction on the area next to the fields. Don't happen often. Only when the disk moves over/into the void area of the die.

If these marks match up to a clashed die issue, that can also alter an area of the die, that would be hard to fix on the die.



(they hope no one with notice, or they didn't notice it) It may have been clash induced. You have to consider that the dies during a clash can rotate and affect other areas that would normally not be a clash mark, except of the rotation issue. Either way is if not a doubled die issue. Just an altered die post die creation that was altered by a die event.

Looks more like a worn die issue than a die variety. But closer images will show us more.

When coins are pretty much beat up, it is not going to be a big premium for these varieties. Spend more listing and trying to sell than it could be worth. Melt silver is the way to rid yourself of an ugly coin. (They don't care about the coin condition on scrap melt)

You are looking on the wrong areas to see a doubled die. Look at the centers of the devices. Not on the outside edge of the devices. On that area you will find die wear and machine doubling happening. Look at the centers of the devices, not the outside edges of the devices:


























Look at the centers of the devices. They will be wider/taller than normal sized devices. Looking at the outside edges of devices will lead you off of the path. Machine doubling and die wear is where you will end up if you look in the non doubled die zone.
