Viperkl New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 02/09/2019 11:08 pm Hello again! Looking through coins & comparing them against the Cherry Pickers Guide (gotta start somewhere right?) I found this 1939 Lincoln Cent. It looks to my untrained eye that there may be doubling on the O. But I don't see it anywhere else. The variety listed in the guide doesn't mention this in particular. Any opinions are appreciated! I tried to get pics but its difficult. Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 02/10/2019 10:18 am While there is damage on the coin, there is one 1939 DDO that looks like that with thicker bits on the lower parts of the lettering. Before you put this one back in the bag take a look at: http://varietyvista.com/01a%20LC%20...9PDDO005.htm The easiest place to see this DDO is the bendy letters of IBE in LIBERTY. Worth a look.

Viperkl New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 02/10/2019 12:31 pm Updated***I will post more pics of the penny shortly. On another note, I'm almost positive I found a 1976 proof type dime in with my husbands loose change. If so, it's my first find & pretty exciting! :) Edited by Viperkl 02/10/2019 3:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff
