The "In God We Trust" shows Doubling and the Y in Liberty has signs of Doubling, but the 1972 date I do not see any signs of Doubling there- Is there any premium at all on this coin?

Thanks for your response,

Finding any double die is nice. Looks like it may be 1DO-003 from coppercoins site.

Thats a great find, one of the best doubled die dates. There's also the 1995 obv and the 1964 rev that are pretty prominent. Cool coin!

1972 was a good year for DDOs. DDO-001 is the big boy that everyone knows about- strong obvious doubling visible without magnification second only to the 1955. Although I cannot tell, you could possibly have one of the other DDOs from that year, coppercoins.com lists 10 varieties. DDO-001 carries a very nice premium but the others have a premium as well (~$20 or so in MS).
