Well, I think you did a great job for your first try. You have a great point as well.

I think it is a DDO then. The marking coming off the D is the Top Back of the second D then. If it was mine I would send it to Mr. Wexler. I know what you mean about using Photoshop - you need to take one before you even start next time. You did a great job!! :)

Wow, so I guess it isn't a Die Gouge? I agree with CoinCentsLady, send it to John Wexler.

My problem agreeing here is the fact of what it takes to "repair" this shift of hubbing. Generally, a shift this great affects ALL the motto, a 3% shift(think 1955) making that working hub would have been trashed by quality control, not polished out which would have been near impossible between all devices. That said, here's a "what if"...to repair this 3% shift, the die must be ground down(if possible) and start the hubbing process over again. If this is/can be done the possibility exists that not all previous details were "erased", leaving a previous partial impression. This would de a question for Mike Diamond, not John Wexlers?

Good point. Still a head scratcher for me a little bit.

@ CrazyB did you check out this mention of similarity from TB Quote:That said, the reason I am asking that that I find enough similarity with 1964 DDO-022 that I think it is worth running around the experts for an opinion. Which people are giving and I thank you! http://varietyvista.com/01b%20LC%20...4PDDO022.htm there is another really odd one that was discovered with one of our members a few months back I believe it was from the 1940's and it affected IN GOD - it was cool but I can't find the thread on it.

Other examples of large shifts without much else going on, I think, would be the new 1944 WDDO-022 and the mysterious 1934 DDO-004. But here there is still the missing O doubling...

I was thinking a later post de-bunked that one as "not" a doubled die. Could be wrong.

Quote: But here there is still the missing O doubling... The overlay keeps me on the fence. Thought I'd ask is the spot in the center of the "O" raised as it seems close to lining up as well? Thanks, Doug.

Yes, the spot in the center of the O is raised, but I think I've seen such a thing on a variety of cents from that era and haven't really considered it as part of anything fishy going on.
