*** Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. Titles are Important! ***Hello everyone! Got a few rolls of wheat pennies from ebay and decided to go through and cherry pick them. Wasn't expecting to find anything really, and I know key dates always get pulled out, but when I saw this coin under the scope....I was speechless... It is beat up and not in the best shape, but you can definitely see the doubling on IN GOD WE TRUST and parts of LIBERTY....considering this is my first DDO ever, I'll take it!

Based on what I've seen, It appears to match the FS-101!

 to the CCF! That's a nice DDO! I would love to see the full images of the obverse and reverse if possible. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

Did anyone note the R on Liberty? Did anyone note the rotation of the DDO? If you have, you would come to a different conclusion. Look again. |

The R is damaged in Liberty, but there is clear doubling on the Y and especially on IN GOD WE TRUST.The rotation of the DDO is noted in the FS-101 examples. Compare mine with the example from Variety Vista.  |

is that a little Cud on the reverse, bottom right or just damage?, Nice find!

But the 'R' is not damaged? It is an issue with a broken hub. Which dies shows this? Trying to encourage investigative spirit.
