How do you know it's DDO, I can't see any doubling unless it's because of it's condition? |

Check on the link above that I posted. Notice the indented areas on the worn example. Then compare them with that link on coppercoins.

For the 1936 a good indicator is the split on the inside part of the "9".  Here is a normal date to compare with:  Edited by coop

I put it back with some other cents, I will have to get it back out to photograph the rest of the coin later. I will post some more pictures for your viewing pleasure.
I have been searching for one of these for years, it put a smile on my face the second I saw it. I have found rarer doubled dies, but this is one that I have really been after. Too bad it isn't in better condition, but I'm still glad I found it!
