Okay, yes I see what you're talking about now. But jeezzzzz man, that is so miNUTE! Let me ask you a question: Is it really worth the effort?
@USSID it sure is because that is what you are going to get now and that is the known variety. The squeeze type method will produce DDR towards the center. So the short answer is yes because if you collect known Errers and Varietys this is what it is now. Trying to find the best ones preferably in EDS in great condition.

I get your point. If you or anyone is a collector of this stuff and enjoy the search and pleasure of it, great! Go for it. I'm just saying is it really worth all that time and effort. Just my opinion.
For me it's worth it. I don't really use much effort on these because when you go looking for a DDR on the reverse of the coin these are easy to spot, one quick peek in the bays, these will eventually become more and more scarce.
USSID: Yes it is worth the time. Look at the person that FOUND the first 1992 Close AM They sold it for 20 grand. Look at all the new error's that are being found. I Recently found and sent in a coin to Dr.James Wiles Its now listed as a New Listing 2015 D DDO-001 Double ear variety. Its for some and not for others. Its called Error hunting/coin roll hunting collecting . Are we going to get rich NAW. Its something different and cheaper in the coin collecting world for people to do that wont cost them but a little bit of money and time. A error coin I found was in Pocket change I sold was a Lincoln DDO cent. sold it for 180 bucks 179 profit ill take it anytime. All's you really need to know is yes its worth peoples time do what they want to do or they would Not be doing it.

Yes, I see your point as well. Can it be enjoyable to search? Yes. Can you get lucky? Yes. Can you make a little money after thousands of searches? Yes.
In the big scheme of things, forget it! One small example of what I'm talking about... Just look on this forum at all the people that think they have found the golden error nugget.
A very very small/minuscule percentage have found anything significant. When members on a thread have to ask, where are you seeing this error or variety and you need arrows, circles and a scanning electron microscope to see it, forget it!
USSID: The thing is I did not need to ask seen it right off told CoinTheTerm, Its a DDR-003 It is significant in the world of Error coin hunting or there would not be any LISTING for them > AHH but there is listings on this error so it makes it Significant in a small way as a collector looking to collect all known Errors coins. Like I said Its for some and not others.
I have to disagree USSID I think you may have the wrong or should I say different objective. I'd say just by your wording you are look for the "golden nugget" whereas I collect errors for my own personal collection and relaxation and enjoyment. If you are only looking for the " big one" have at it and let me know how that works out for you. You'll be searching the same coins that coin roll hunters have searched over and over for the last 50 years. To each his own I don't judge, some collectors are purists, some search for errors and varieties, some search for golden nuggets.
Very well put Daves Errors I think we are on the same page with this

Was it an "error" or a "DDO?"
