MS70Error5 Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 08/04/2016 3:24 pm In a roll of uncirculated 2016 LSCs I came across 4 coins with what appear to be notches on the two T's and S in TRUST. The notches are in the same location on all 4 coins. I thought it might have been a hit on the coin, but since all 4 have these marks I think it could be a DDO. Also, on one coin I noticed what looks like notching on the top of the letters of LIBERTY. I took close ups and think it could be a Class 1 DDO. The notching is rather difficult to see with a loupe. However, The notch on the first T in TRUST stands out strongly with a loupe on all 4 coins. I welcome and appreciate your feedback. Thank you. :) Report this Post to the Staff

MS70Error5 Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 08/04/2016 8:03 pm Thanks Coop. Liberty looked flat to me too, but wanted to just check because more than one coin had these features. Is there any comparison photos of a normal 2016 cent vs an Extra Thickness doubled die 2016 cent? I know there are varieties with strong extra thickness, but is it noticeable without really studying the coin for a good while? Report this Post to the Staff

MS70Error5 Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 08/04/2016 8:12 pm Oh ok. Yea I have a whole box of uncirculated 2016 LSCs and I am going crazy looking for notches on the bottoms of RTY in Liberty lol. These are very tricky to spot. Like you said more noticeable doubling would be a better listing for these coins. Thanks Coop. Report this Post to the Staff
