1952 D Wheat Penny DDR

to the forum!

This is Machine Doubling, not a doubled die. The letters are noticeably thinner (especially on the B), that would not happen with a doubled die.

Do not get it graded, save your money for when you find a real, strong doubled die! Keep looking and I'm sure you'll find one.

Note the areas on the devices you are looking at. The affected areas of the devices are reduced on each area. This is caused by the machine and die movement after the strike. On a doubled die the devices wuld be enlarged, not reduced in size:

Note the normal size and the DDR devices size. Now look at the images you posted, now you can see that those devices were reduced in size. If you need to see more images, I have lots of them. Just ask.
