As Petespockets55 said, there are some of the Denver shields that just have a thicker look, just the way the master die was made. As I said, in my earlier post, I think yours is just a late die stage, it has that puffy, worn out die look to it. What you want to look for on these, is distortion. If there is thickness but it is uniform, more than likely, it's not a doubled die. I was lucky in finding the first doubled die of any 2023 mint Lincoln and made out ok with my finds but it was nothing more than a timing thing. These are typically not worth much, as frog said but they are fun to find and I usually keep them. I have given away almost as many as I have found.

Thanks Makecents in the post I put ? Mark behind the DDR. But it ended up behind the date I don't know how. I do see Die Deterioration in this one. Thanks Bent and those were 3 different picks.

I tried to email you but your email is turned off. If you would like, I'll send you some different shield doubled dies, if you want, so you can get a better idea of what to look for. Just email me if you are interested.

I'm thinking that the JFM initials are thickened from being in a Late Die Stage.

Looks similar to an unlisted 2022 I found a few months ago.

I've found quite few 2022 like yours that would probably qualify as a DDR based on previous years attributions. Check the bottom "feet" of the letters in UNITED STATES OF AMERICA to see if there is any additional thickness towards the center. Since quite few seem to have this "curving" of the initials towards the SE it's possible this is some type of master die doubling. But I think corroborating thickness on USA (or elsewhere) would be enough to for the attribution sites to call it a DDR.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
