ikuna Valued Member Trinidad And Tobago 489 Posts	Posted 10/02/2018 4:31 pm Hi, check this out guys. Small doubling by the 1961, the B and E in liberty and the D in God. What do you think ? Is it a new find and worth something ? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/02/2018 4:38 pm Images are much help. We need to see what your are seeing. There was a master die doubling issue that year: http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=mds But I can't see what your seeing yet. A closer view might help? Report this Post to the Staff

The DDO your refering to is post mint damage for PMD caused by the flattening of the metal on the devices. There is also some minor Machine Doubling (MD) which is caused by the bounce of the die and is not considered an error or variaty on the legend 'Liberty'. On "In God We Trust" (IGWT) there is some Die Deterioration Doubling ( DDD) caused by the wear of the minting dies expanding the lettering a bit, which is normal. All in all it's not a DDO or an error, so it's a safe spender. Report this Post to the Staff
