I saw the "tail" on the 0 in the date of this 1970 S one cent and remembered reading about a doubled die with the same marker. I'm pretty sure it is Vista DDO-005, FS-103. I tried to show a link, but for whatever reason, I'm not able to make it work. I can post photos from the attribution if needed. Thanks for your opinion.. Jim

I see the 'tail' on the 0, not quite the same shape as the VV DDO-05, your tail seem to have a bit more of a hook to it.
When you think you have found a match to an attribution, you should try to take pictures just like they are posted on the site (such as VV) it makes it much easier to match up the coin to the site's images.
on your coin there may be a slight split on the 9, but the rest looks normal to me.
I'll give this a 'possible DDO'

1970s-1do-007 is FS-103 under Coppercoins website. Two different die states here. Check for the markers for each die state. I'm not good with telling which state coins are in. I just try to find the markers with each one until I find them.

Jfeed pictures are good, just really shiny. If your using a ring light, you can use your finger to partially cast a shadow on a portion of the coin to make the doubling really pop. Try different positions with your finger or a coin flip, around the coin to manipulate the lighting.

I think I see a worn die issue and not a doubled die.

I do not see here the FS-103, at any stage A, B or C what Kurd state. Me I do not loose my time anymore for 1960 or 1970-S for examples. To many to be able to accomplish a collection.

Thanks kurdlezuit.. Your suggestions on lighting should really help. I'm sticking with my opinion after going over all the attributions again. I am not a big time collector and get excited to find even the smallest or more simple errors. Again, I appreciate all the comments and opinions. They all go in my little" learning book" to help and use in the future.

A 1970-s DDO in that condition would be a HUGE find.

Come on there are only 54 of them!

Still, I think yours could be FS-103 if some of the markers check out - not enough photo details here to go on for markers.
