both coins that I have found contain the die markers listed on doubleddie.com.
First coin listing: http://goccf.com/t/344406&SearchTer...velsofmadnes

thanks all
and yes, I think collectors are not submitting to a TPG.

If the ones that I have found were in MS condition, I would have send to a TPG.

OK so you are saying the die chip on the ear lobe is the marker for a very suttle DDO.

Hello TwistedTrader,

When remarking about the die markers, I was responding to John1.

I see doubling in the ear and not a die chip; I am far from being an expert.

I'm trying to understand how the ear can be doubled and not the whole overce.

Dies are conical (cone shaped) so if a die isn't fully squeezed, it would result in an incomplete design with the detail at the center only being visible.

Mint employees likely began making this die with it offset to the south, realized the offset before it made a complete hubbing, then restarted with the alignment corrected.

I was looking at this one on the devices, and wondering what am I missing. It is a doubled ear.

I still get mad everytime I see this coin, because 2 years ago it came up on ebay for only $20 in at least AU, but I wasn't really interested in it at the time. If only I'd known how rare it was
