After finding what I though to be an Amazing DDR. I wanted to get on here to ask a couple questions about it. I thought Maybe I could do some research on the variety to see what I could find. I just read a research article on the 1972 Doubled dies and seen that these DDR - DDO`S are plentyfull for a number of reasons and that the only Valuble ones that have eother error varietys as well as the Doubled Die. I wanted to see if this was Accurate and if anyone has any other information on it.

To see if it is Master Die doubling or a doubled die, we need pictures. Once we have pictures we can tell what your coin is.

Sorry for the photo quality just a few I snapped really quick. I'm going to get more right now. Another queation that I was going to ask was about those scratches million they take my mind into LDS. But I have never seen it that extream before so I though either PMD,or problem coin,possibly die scratch, I will get some photos od wide views of that as well

The parts of the coin that I thought high lighted the master hub are the O and E from one A`S in States and America. That eas from a P I also have a couple photos from a D that were Qestionable Its letters had sherriffs and almost complete sepperation on it.

Gary, Some of your pics are good most are not. A little practice with the pic taking will help us/you a lot. As of now I see no doubling. John1

I see a few split serifs, but work on those pictures so we can see the coin not so blurry and be able to see what you have.

Split serifs are on mint mark RPM. On hub doubling they are referred to as notching.
The tail feathers look like it might be machine damaged. The dies may have bounded/hopped after the strike altering the devices. If so other devices in that area might show this as well.

Hey Thanks guys.I do appreciate the help tremendously. John I can only immagine how frustrating it can be to try to help someone in numismatics with poor quality ( at best ) photos. I can tell you though. it is very frustrating on my part as well to be able to look down and see these awesome details in a coin and not even begin to capture what I'm seeing with my own eyes, Reading about and seeing a coin very close to the one I'm viewing. In books and online listings from the top third party grading service companies. Then after an hour or so of taking photos deleting them over and over again get tiny bits of what I have seen

So frustrating as it may be I really appreciate the help. And I am working on solutions for the poor images. I did alot of reading and some up grading of equipment.The tiniest bit of what I was seeing in this coin can be found in the photo of ERICA from AMERICA the C to be more precise. Thanks again guys and I appologize again for the poor quality.
