Looks like the real deal apparently. Now we need a Doubled Die Obverse to be discovered. 264216045720Errers and Varietys.

I have yet to see one 2019 cent. I think all of the shield cents are boring and hoping the mint comes out with a different design.

Levelsofmadnes, so far, I have only seen one from 2019. And yes, I do agree that the LSC's are boring. They're only good for Doubled Dies pretty much.

You've only seen one coin total so far? Bank probably had whole box or 2 here but I only grabbed a few rolls. Cracked some & rest got put away. Nothing to note. I see the thickness but I would never buy that & would most likely toss or overlook.

Yep. I've seen only one so far, and it came from a customer wrapped roll I was going through last month. This DDR is definitely not worth that price. I rather find it CRH myself than buying one.

It's neat to see some 2019 varieties popping up here and there, but not particularly excited about shield cent Doubled Dies, unless it's as significant as the 2014 and 2015 "big ones". Never the less, it's a cool find. Not sure it's worth what they're asking though. Nice catch E&V.

CH27, I hope more Doubled Dies will be discovered for this year. Hopefully, it will be something like 2018 WDDO-001.

I have not seen any 2019's yet. I noticed the 2018-D's that the reverse's are "puffy" looking but I do not think they are DDR. I am not convinced that that 2019 on the bay is a true DDR,if anything maybe a master die doubling? I am wrong about 20% of the time you know though  John1

I'd be hesitant to call this a DDR until I saw it in hand. The seller's photos have a lot of glare and a handful of their doubled dies for sale aren't what they say they are. And even if it is a DDR, I don't think it's worth the price.

Yeah Tanmam. I have noticed that too. Most of their supposedly called "Doubled Dies" aren't even one.

In spite of the somewhat blurry images, the DDR coin (Philly) does show thickness compared to his other example. Specifically the vertical leg of the L. IMHO I would say it is a DDR. Almost all years of Denver LSC's do show a thickness to the initials which is not hub doubling.

how boring are the LSC? I still got almost a full box of 2018 to go thru; had that box for about a month now.

Quote:Almost all years of Denver LSC's do show a thickness to the initials which is not hub doubling.  On another note, that's precisely why I disagree with the listing of 2010-D WDDR-001. I don't see how that one is any thicker than the usual Denver coin. Quote:how boring are the LSC? I still got almost a full box of 2018 to go thru; had that box for about a month now. There's only one DDO currently listed for 2018 (and if I remember correctly, the number may go up to three once Wexler updates his site). Shield Cents haven't been very good for varieties in the past few years. 2016-2018 have been more or less a dud, only one moderately strong DDO per year and absolutely no significant DDRs. 2011, 2014, and 2015 are the ones to look at.

Petespockets55, it's definitely a genuine DDR.

Thanks E&V. Just wanted to confirm so we know the varieties have started. I was pretty sure from the sellers comparison collage. With DoubledDies.com being so far behind updating there is no way to tell if the seller may have submitted one. Hopefully the varieties don't end with this one.
Odd that the seller was from deep in Denver territory and finding a Philly variety. (Las Vegas, Nevada)
