Thanks, John1. I am thinking that CC and Wexler are identifying 2 different coins. At least they do not cross reference each other and they give different markers for the coins they have identified. It is a little confusing to me. Can you comment on that?

I have a 2010 P DDO that I don't think is listed on either website. I was just holding on to it until someone submits. I does not match the coin listed above. Still Lookin

John1 - what do you see as not matching? Have you tried an overlay? (It may be that I am doing the overlay incorrectly. I cannot post it because Wexler's images are copyrighted.)

Quote: John1 - what do you see as not matching? Mainly the date on your coin. Liberty looks a bit puffy though so maybe a minor DDO but not 001? I am not smart enough to do an overlay  John1

John1 - Wexler does not show an image of the date. Apparently it is not a part of the identification for his coin...I think you are still talking about the coin on CC. My reference for this coin is WDDO-001. The W in the ID indicates Wexler, I think. Here is the link to the Wexler coin: http://doubleddie.com/846297.html

Thanks still lookin - I tried an overlay of the Wexler coin on years and it does not match - so that is not it, I think. The RTY on your coin certainly looks fat to me.

I do know that the one I have is not on Wexler's site. It may however match coppercoins. I may at some point send it to Mr Wexler.
Still Lookin

I don't think it is a doubled die. The date is showing some MD, but the 1 looks interesting. The 001 on coppercoins on LIBERTY is a lot stronger. Note the doubling on LIBERTY is on the upright devices in that area, but I'm not seeing that on your coin. http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=edsBut the glare is pretty strong on your images to tell for sure what is going on. So mark it for now until you can get better images with less glare. There is evidence of Die Deterioration on the date on the right side of the devices.

Thanks coop. You are talking about 2 things - the date and the appearance of LIBERTY on coppercoins. I have not been comparing my coin to that one. I am comparing my coin to the one on Wexler's list (link indicated above). He does not show a date at all. I did an overlay from what he shows, and it seems to fit fine with my coin. I am fairly convinced that there are two different coins represented on those two sites. So I did an overlay of the coin an Wexler (first image) with the one on coppeercoins, and they do not match. The RTY from Wexler is more widely spaced than that from coppercoins. Since there is no date image showing on Wexler, I don't see how any observations about it are relevant. Let me repeat that my overlay of Wexlers image with my coin matches. Maybe I have done it incorrectly and would be willing for you to try it and tell me where I went wrong. You taught me about overlays over a year ago and I am grateful for that. Wexler and coppercoins do not claim that they show the same coin: there is no crossreferencing of each other's coin. Also they show different markers from each other. I think that the way to question this identification I am proposing is by questioning my identification of the markers. Since Wexler does not give images, but describes them verbally, I may have misunderstood him. Also, there are possible secondary markers on this coin which he may be referencing. I picked the ones which seemed to me to fit his description best. Thanks for your help. I would like to hear your comments on the 2 sources featuring different coins.
