Congratulations, I think you made a really great score. Strangely, it set on ebay for more than 4 weeks (relisted 4 times) before you bid on it. The only reason I sold it is because I have been fortunate enough to find 3 or 4 of them. I am very glad that you bought it, it is one of the cooler DDO's. I know it will be appreciated for what it is... an LCR Top 50 Doubled Die. Thanks, and again, congratulations! |

Very nice "oops". The only lucky find I ever had on ebay, and this was years ago. I bought a "1923" Peace dollar and by the look of the picture I was almost certain it was a 28. Sure enough when it came to my house it was indeed a 28. A heck of a blunder for the seller. Bought for $19.00. |

 I didn't know I bought it from you, Sudz! Nice! Keeping it in the family, huh?  |

What's bad is that, with me only being 15, I only had $5 to spend. Money well spent, even though I feel kind of guilty now for getting it for so low.  |

Trust me, it will fit in perfectly with my Top 50 Trail Dies, Top 100 RPMs, and various other nice errors/varieties. I have a system that I have in the computer. It's a singular Google Spreadsheet that has all the errors and varieties I have listed. I list the date, mintmark, error/variety, location on the coin, anything other, and then assign a number. If it's a Lincoln Cent (any type) and has something going on, I assign a number with an E on the front. If it's a nickel, dime, quarter, or half, I assign a number beginning with C. No reason, just wanted to differentiate from the Cents. It's taking me a while to put it together though.  Edited by CoinCollector2000

Please don't feel bad, I'm glad you got it, you are the future of our hobby!
Also I threw in a couple of "Bonus" doubled dies for you to enjoy as well, one is another Top 50. I'll let you figure out what they are when you get them.

You really didn't have to do that, Sudz. But, you know I won't complain whatsoever. I don't have many doubled dies anyway. You're one of the ones who got me into this hobby back almost three years ago. I think it's because we registered at similar times, but you had the jump on me.  Thanks again! |

What a great story to go along with a great coin - that is why this forum is the best. Sudz has helped me out as well :)

I got my coins today. I couldn't be happier! Let me make sure that I attributed them correctly: 1935 D (WDDR-001), 1941 (WDDO-001), and the 1955 D (WDDO-001). I'm honestly so thankful that you sent me the 1941 WDDO-001. It's an amazing looking coin! Many thanks, Sudz!!

Just for learning why is it considered DDO in the pictures it looks flat and shelf like to me which I thought was always MD. Sorry in still telling the differences |
