Greetings fellow coin members. First of all I would like to say thanks for all of the feedbacks. I came across several coins that I like to get advice on.

1961 Lincoln Penny DDO. Clearly there is doubling on the motto.

The other coin is a 1972 Lincoln Penny. It stood out to me. Haven't seen anything similar.

The 61 looks like DDD and what are you seeing on the 72-S?

How about a close up of the 72's date with mint mark?
Rest in Peace

I'm afraid I'm unsure on the 72 as to what you are seeing.

You need to turn your images at a different angle. The angle your seeing the MD, is turned into glare spotlighting the light on the flat shelf like area of MD. At a different angle Rotate 90-180 degrees) to left the light fall across the devices in stead of flowing the area with too much light.

Also keep in mind that 1972 is known for master die doubling.

On the left side of these devices, MD is present. Thus turning the coin to allow a different angle would show this. I'll make some inverted images later and show how the glare is hiding what you see and why we can't see it because of the glare.
