This was found by my dad - he is much more in tune with doubled dies than I am. He thinks he has found a possible new DDO. Coin is in great shape - AU 55 or so. Appears to be strong doubling on date and LIBERTY. Please let us know what you think. Thanks!! Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCbass Pillar of the Community United States 1217 Posts	Posted 10/17/2014 04:29 am Spoke w Brian Ribar of Doubleddie.com regarding this. Sent him pictures. We are going to send it in for attribution. Keep ya posted. He also confirmed there were no DDO for that year and mint, so first of its kind if it ends up being the real deal Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCbass Pillar of the Community United States 1217 Posts	Posted 11/15/2014 03:45 am Well - it turns out this coin was attributed as the first DDO for 42D nickels. http://www2.briansvarietycoins.com/...ngs/view/723 Based on Brian's info, looks like it is a DDR as well and likely a D over D. So a trifecta. Thanks for everyone's help on this. Report this Post to the Staff
