I found this coin in a US Treasury envelope 1963 UC set.
Thoughts? Value? I am new to coins but am very excited. I know what a DD looks like!

Well I see MD on the reverse. But a closer view of the motto would be helpful. Here is a SBS to compare with. The upper one is normal, the lower one is a DDO.

Thank you for the pictures. Maybe not...but here is a closer pic of the motto. And a closer pic of mint mark.

The mintmark was pushed by Machine Doubling. Not a RPM.

Note on the bottom image on the motto devices, that is the hub doubling. I'm not seeing it on your coin. Check again on that area. To me DDO looks minor, but there maybe no bigger ones that year? Just check, there are a lot stronger ones that year:

The attributed die that I posted, looks incorrect. Not FS-101. Looks more like DDO-009. Another wrong number from PCGS.

Thank you. What do you think about this one? It's a 1963 P. The R looks like a mirror image. This is hard!!

Looks like DDO-001 on that one:

See if this looks like a match to you?

Stage 'A' is usually the fresher die state that struck the coin. Other events what happen to the die is the different letters as the die ages. Sometimes it tell what the die state is, other times if mentions if a die marriage was changed or not, chips, clashes and other die events.

Verdict: I went to see the local coin dealer. Out of the 4 1963 coins, 1 was a DDO. The second picture. The first he said was Machine Doubling. The other two, I no errors. Suggested sending the first off to be graded . He thinks it's a MS63. The others he also felt were MS63s. Thanks again.
