Cross-eyed Pillar of the Community United States 849 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 5:45 pm It doesn't look shelf like in hand,but I just wanted to check with y'all. Variety Vista lists a DDO 001,but no picture.Mr.Wexler doesn't list a DDO for a '77. What do you think? Report this Post to the Staff

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 8:09 pm I don't see anything like a doubled die. I looked at it for a long time -- went away to rest my eyes and came back -- and I still don't see it. Report this Post to the Staff

I think it does appear to have a bit of something extra there but I think that is just the result of Die Deterioration. I see a lot of faint die flow lines radiating outward and that's a sign that it is worn. This coin might have been made at the beginning of the Late Die State (LDS). I hope someone can confirm that.... Anyway, good eye for spotting that. I'm sure you'll find lots of good stuff with your attention to detail. Report this Post to the Staff

Cross-eyed Pillar of the Community United States 849 Posts	Posted 08/01/2017 07:22 am I have seen this on a lot of Kennedy halves,but they have that shelf look to them at all angles.What caught My eye was,this one,it has a 'round' edge,no shelf to it,and you can only see it at one angle.Turn the coin slightly,and the effect seems to disappear.Dunno,I'll throw it in the odd-ball pile.Thanks anyhow!

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 08/01/2017 8:56 pm No harm in keeping it. The only other thing I could suggest -- if you're willing -- is to send it to CONECA so an expert can see it in hand. Report this Post to the Staff
