Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 10/10/2018 1:53 pm I found this 1987 D LMC and it looks an awful lot like the DDO-001. The spread looks almost identical and you can see the split in the upper left corner of the Y. The only thing that is throwing me is the mintmark placement. Am I just seeing flattening of the devices? Insight please. Report this Post to the Staff

Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 10/10/2018 2:14 pm Yes sir, as stated that is what was throwing me. So, is it just the flattening of the devices? Report this Post to the Staff

Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 10/10/2018 2:28 pm Well, if there's no chance of it being a DDO it'll go back into circulation. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/10/2018 2:32 pm Hub doubling leaves the devices raised, not incuse. (Sunk into the die for raised devices on the coin) Damage to the coin leaves them incuse of raised devices and leaves them flattened when damage happens. Report this Post to the Staff
