Posting close-up, high quality images is the only way to determine whether this is a DDO or DDR. |

Thank you J-Buck :) I am still learning how to navigate through the site to where certain questions should be posted. I truly appreciate everyone's opinion. I felt there was many doubling on both the front on all letters and even some areas of the face and on the back in the lettering, columns and perhaps the sitting Lincoln image. I have only used a magnifying glass with 5 magnification and take pictures at different angles to try to zoom close up and take another look. I'm disappointed to hear I was mistaken, I can't seem to quite grasp the distinction between doubling that is common vs. the more rare uncommon find. Also I wondered, is there a certain amount of posts we are allowed to post asking questions regarding coin errors and also what is the best way to put a good picture in with a question for technologically illiterate rookies like me? Thanks!!

The 1982 large date does have the wider devices on the design that year. Here is a 1982P-1DO-002 with a side by side of a normal and the doubled die to show the difference.  The machine damaged coins are the common ones. They are from a normal die, with die movement during the strike. On the doubled dies, they are doubled on the die from the hubbing process. Here is an example of a machine damaged-normal-doubled die:  |

I can kind of see the doubling but we really need some really close up pics.

That number is "all of them." The only dumb question is the one unasked. We don't care if we've heard the same question a thousand times in the past. We'll answer it again. |

I believe I see Machine Doubling on the 2 of the date and the M in American. But like others have said. Closer images are needed to confirm anything. Cheers and |

The "W" looks like it has serifs on the top, but hard to be sure without closer images.

You guys are awesome! Thank you :) I just posted about a 1999 p Lincoln Penny that I need any and all thoughts on but I do not see it and I hope I did not post in the wrong place- I REAL want input on this penny! Thanks again to all that responded. |

Also, I agree about the "W", that one stood out the most to me because most "WE" that I see all seem normal :)
