The NINES look like there is doubling. IMHO, all of the numbers/letters are definitely wider than normal. Do you have a standard 1909 & LIBERTY pics you can post?
Interesting coin.
The R in Liberty, definitely looks like the marker is in the center of the R....and a little verdigris too. :)

Yeah a little crusty  How about that die dot above the nine? All I have is coppercoins for the #2. Any other sources? I have one other VDB and it's very slim lettering in comparison.

I looked in the CherryPickers Guide - volume 5 (newest addition). DDO 2 does have doubling, that is every so slightly present. Believe you have a #2.

The Motto WE TR is pictured on coppercoins. You might compare with your example. It seems stronger on these devices: http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=mdsA soaking in mineral oil might clean the devices up a bit. But I question that this is 002. But take a look at the WE TR on motto. That might be the clincher. The areas showing the spread on the date are about 4:00 on the Loops of the 9's and the 0 in the date.

Yeah, 4:00 was what seemed thin. I will shoot the WE TR and post. Thanks for the comments.

Quote: Not the same doubling Without regard to #1 or #2 is this doubled or flattened? Something must account for the width (besides aliens of course) PS I agree on the goof thing :)

I feel circulation has spread the devices some. But a nice learning thread.

The coin in this thread is not a doubled die.
