Well,what do you think?Have I found My second doubled die coin?If so...I have another one too.
Now,before I do a happy dance...are these common?Because I have two,I mean like,what are the odds of both of them being doubled?They must be pretty common for that to happen too Me.
Looks like IGWT is doubled.

I feel it is a new die. There is a FS-101 in the CPG, but your coin is not that die number. Yours if a stronger example. So you might check with John Wexler to see if he is interested in looking at it?

Here is the FS-101:

Here is your coin:
1973-S-Ike-40%-Silver-Bs-DDO
Your coin has stronger doubling.

Thanks to Cross Eyed, I looked at mine. I may have one of these as well, but not 100% certain. Please check these pics and LMK. This is a 73s 40% BU Ike as well.

Oh Cool!Not only My second DDO,but possibly a discovery coin to boot?This is Great!I'll get a hold of Mr.Wexler ASAP and report back with what He said.

I have to take a lot closer look at that other one now to see if it's the same.

Hey Andy,I looked at Your coin and appears that it is doubled,but My eye isn't qualified to say it's a match.I'll let the experts chime on it.Good luck with it!

Note the lower part of the 'S' on TRUST. That tells it all.

I figured if I am going to send Mr.Wexler some pictures I might as well send pic's of both coins.So I went ahead and imaged the second coin and here it is.
It doesn't have the eye appeal as the first having some spotting issues.

Check out the S on this one.It looks a little different from the first.
Also,it looks like the 1 and the 7 may be doubled.
