That's because it is MD. Thats not the doubling they are trying to show. Theres separation and notching mostly visible in EPU and ONE CENT. Its very minor and only listed on VV.

I agree with MD. It's always confusing when the listed coin has MD, that's why you have to read the description, not just look at the pics.

My first thought was MD also. Now time to go look at VV and see if they put up MD images...

Well, I finally had a chance to go and look at VV and compare to your coin. There is a striking similarity, but not quite exact. The 'N in united is missing the doubling on the diagonal on your coin for one spot I see easily. Your coin also displays the 'doubling' differently, yours is sloped or more rounded.

John, MD is like a snowflake, they are all different.

For the 1982 DDR you just need to look at the right leg of the R in AMERICA. Note on the DDR it is wide and ends not at a point but is quite blunt. OP photos show a thin, pionty right leg of the R. It's just pretty hard to see it anywhere else on the coin unless it is an uncirculated early die stage coin.

UNITED isn't even part of the doubling on this doubled die. The whole conversation was about the fact that the listing had MD too. UNITED is all MD on the listing.... That is why I said it's important to read the description, before looking at the pretty pictures.
