Hokuto7291 Valued Member United States 161 Posts	Posted 01/18/2020 2:20 pm Hey everyone, I've got a nice looking 1962 penny that I need opinions on. It seems to be doubled on the date, liberty, and IGWT. It could just be Die Deterioration, but I'm almost leaning towards DDO. What do you all think? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/18/2020 3:29 pm It is die wear. The devices are not enlarged, but the metal is flowing towards the rim direction. (Probably the same will be seen on Liberty (left) and date. (right in the direction of the closest rim)) Report this Post to the Staff

Hokuto7291 Valued Member United States 161 Posts	Posted 01/19/2020 11:04 am yes greasy fingers, there are so many that I came here to ask for help just in case someone could spot it right away. There are a few that seem similar, but mine always seems to be missing a key marker like a die scratch. Report this Post to the Staff
