I looked at Cherrypickers and VarietyVista and don't see the 42-S listed as having a DDO. On this coin, the date and some but not all of the letters in LIBERTY appear doubled. What do you make of this? Report this Post to the Staff

ThisIsFun Pillar of the Community United States 2480 Posts	Posted 01/16/2013 05:37 am I guess you're right. I thought there was a stair-step at the lower right corner of the 4 and 2 but the vertical part of the 4 looks narrowed and it should look full width if it were die doubling. The B still looks odd but perhaps the raised portion inside the upper loop is a chip. Report this Post to the Staff
