MLFLY Valued Member United States 130 Posts	Posted 11/23/2007 11:32 am I've spent zero time looking for or at error coins but a couple of recent presentations in the coin club did spark some interest in me. In a box of well circulated and improperly stored coins lying around for years, I found this. Is this a DDO? It's much more obvious in the microscope. Thanks - this is for my education (assuming I can still learn!). Image: 1937lcb.jpg 86.09 KB Edited by MLFLY 11/23/2007 11:43 am Report this Post to the Staff

MLFLY Valued Member United States 130 Posts	Posted 11/23/2007 3:17 pm Thanks for the comments. I guess I have to learn how to get larger sized images showing - I presume by putting them on my own website and then linking the image here? Otherwise, it's too small to enlarge enough.
