tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 07/29/2019 1:37 pm This one has some problems, but it is far, far better than the one I've had to this point. These are quite hard to see given that it is a FS-101 major DDO, and even on this fairly decent coin the doubling can be hard to pick out. Found this a couple days ago and finally getting around to putting it in a slip and into the collection. 1927 Lincoln Wheat cent doubled die DDO-001, FS-101 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/29/2019 8:26 pm When looking at the Variety Vista images, always read the description first. That will direct you to the hub doubling. They include images of non affected areas on the coin. This might seem lazy on their part, but gives you a chance to see if the doubling matches even non affected areas. So if your coin is showing doubling were it shouldn't be, then you know it is not a match to your coin. So I repeat, read the description to see what areas should be affected. So if you have some areas that don't match, it is probably not that die number. ( sometimes die/coin wear can weaken devices) Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 07/29/2019 9:02 pm Don't forget to spell it right. It is a doubled die (note there are two "d"s in doubled, so the website is doubleddie.com. Gobs and gobs of doubled dies listed on there, more than on any other site I believe although a number of them don't include photos for some years and die numbers. Report this Post to the Staff

pound_foolish Valued Member United States 406 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 11:22 am Good find. They're not easy to come by - I picked one up not long ago and have considered sending it to PCGS. http://goccf.com/t/347433&SearchTerms=1927,fs-101 Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 07/30/2019 11:36 am I'd only send that one to PCGS if you really would like it slabbed for yourself. It'll cost you about $50 to get it slabbed between fee for slab, fee for variety, and postage plus insurance in both directions. You'd be able to pretty easily sell the coin using the photos you have for pretty much exactly what you would get for it in a slab, and thus you'd be out the money it cost you to slab the coin. So not a money-making proposition, but always nice to have a good coin graded and slabbed for posterity. Report this Post to the Staff
