If you could post your pics rotated properly and add a pic of WE,that might help. Use the search box,upper left of page for a ton of info on the 1972 LMC master die doubling. John1

Looks like 1972-D DDO-004 from the mint mark location: http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...2DDDO004.htmThe clue for me that it was not a master die issue is the '9' in the date: Although it is not listed in the image above, the shape of the '9' was the tip off that is is a doubled die.

I believe you have a genuine DDO, and the doubling appears stronger than the master doubling seen across all three mints on this date. I took a look at the CONECA Variety Vista master listing, for 1972-D there is only one die listed with clockwise doubling, they reference it as DDO-002 2-O-I-CW. They list six die stages, yours appears to be am earlier one as in later stages the top of the O in GOD is polished away. You can submit the coin to CONECA for attribution, I will leave to others still active in the club to advise how. Sean

Errers and Varietys.
