bluemercury New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 04/07/2018 9:38 pm Is it possible to have only the last 5 doubled in a 1955 Lincoln Cent. I'm certain its possible but has anyone ever seen it. Ive only seen the full on obverse double die. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 04/07/2018 9:44 pm That is called Die Deterioration Doubling, or as some a "Poorman's Doubled die" which it is not a DDO, just die wear. Read what I wrote here about it: https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...1753#2581111 IT IT NOT A DOUBLED DIE! Edited by Crazyb0 04/07/2018 9:47 pm Report this Post to the Staff
