Have finally stopped and been going back through coins that I thought were keepers, and was able to confirm 2 out of six, DDR to the left of Lincoln, so far. Had to stop at 1am and get some rest  LOL Thought I'd share the finds with you all. I'll be placing the other ones in their own thread. Hope this helps others, and as well as the feedback helps me.     Edited by Curly82ABN 03/29/2023 6:49 pm

 Outstanding! Wondering what I'll find when I go through the ones I placed in the toss bucket when I really dove into error searching. Glad I just hoarded them until I gain more knowledge.

One coin per thread is usually best.

Ok...What are we looking at here? I know that photos tell the story, but descriptions (words) help us novices. Thanks

@jfeed.... 6th bay/7th column, the cigar-shape next to Lincolns (L) knee.

Thanks for the share Coop! I'll work on some closer pics so that I can see if there is anything still showing for the extra knee. Question for you. During the stages of the die (e.g., EDS, MDS, LDS & VLDS) can you find features of the doubling disappear or even change shapes?

Keep in mind that die polishing can weaken the base of the devices when the fields are removed. So the DDR can be weakened as these devices are sub devices. (Not as deep into the die like the higher raised devices) So the outlines maybe weakened, but the raised areas should still rise up like the listed fresher dies would show.
