Been clearing off many thousands of circulated wheats that have accumulated while I was gone. Down to only 10K or so left but it's very time-consuming to go through them all. So not much exciting to post from this stuff, but this 1941 looks maybe EF or so and a nice doubled die so figured to toss it up here. I always like the doubled ear coins, but this also has wide doubling on TY and the 19. 1941 Lincoln Wheat cent Doubled Die DDO-005, FS-103      |

Very cool!  I personally like the 1936,1941,1942 and 1955 doubled dies because for the variaties pf those years there was always something unique |

While not as nice, and in a totally different bunch of coins, I just happened to find another one of these just now.   |

nice! I wasn't aware of this one. Pretty new at the coin info. My Dad taught me what I started out with. He stopped collecting in the early 70's. So I've got a lot of dated material stuck in my head.

Hi Coop, I've honestly never seen anything that looked doubled around the eye, which would probably look fairly un-obvious as it would double roughly in the same direction as the eyelid goes. But I don't have an MS example of this one so could be something I've missed.

I check other examples and it doesn't show anything real strong. I figured it would be strong, but the direction may have prevented that from happening.

Great find. The '41 doubled dies are elusive in my wheat bags/rolls but I'm hoping to find FS-102 sometime. IMO that's the nicest of the 3 DDs. Your coin looks to be in pretty nice shape, I like the hair detail.

I was going to say that better not be BU. I'm keeping an eye on those. Very nice find!

Congratulations TB. The strength of the doubling at the date, ear and TY is very nice on that first one.
(Wow, not sure if the AU example I found in a roll from a Manhattan school cafeteria was that strong.)
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
