received this from my father today - he is an avid coin collector and error collector. I thought I would share with you all. "The "big one" - the 1939 P DDR with doubled monticello. This is the second one I've found in close to 2,000,000 nickels"   |

I have probably searched more than him, but he keeps track of them and he also checks every single one for doubled dies.

As to worth? I have no idea. It seems to be very strong doubling. Someone w more experience will know.
I am expecting that he will keep it.

Nice find. I have found 2 but not as nice as yours. As with any error coin that shows up in a price guide or the CherryPickers Guide if that denomination is roll hunted ebay will be flooded with them and supply will outstrip demand and debase the "guide" prices. Here's mine.   |

Yotie- he does both. Depends on his mood. He has been doing coins for probably 40 years - likely linger
He has found some awesome error coins over the years
