Not sure about this one. I think there is doubling in UNITED.

But the O in ONE caught my eye.

I did, kind of. I have a very difficult time with the DDRs on these dates. There are 3 DDRs for this year.

I don't think it's WDDR-001, as that's the big one. Might be WDDR-002 but I can't tell very well because these years give me a hard time. Could also be WDDR-003, because I know from that late die stage 1964 DDR-001, that the doubling can fade in a sense, and only some areas are left with obvious doubling. So that could be the case, where the UNITED and ONE are the main doubled areas that haven't faded.

WDDR-003 on Wexler's is far stronger than yours. The T in CENT looks like a match to WDDR-002. Nice find!

EDIT: WDDR-003 has the doubling on ONE going the wrong way so it has to be WDDR-002.

Thanks for letting me know Joseph! Sweet! Another DDR!

Curious what die stage it follows under, as it means this is DDR-002 FS-802 from VarietyVista.

I believe your right wddr-002 FS-802, So far I have found 12 still got more to go through this is the Matte proof one I think. Could use some verification

Here are a few different die states to compare die scratches and doubling with:
United:

1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?

States of:
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?

One:
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?

Side by sides of normal VS some examples seen recently that were determined as normal:
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?

So compare to see if it is a DDR or a normal coin. Try matching doubling, and then die scratches to see if they are match or normal sized devices.


Cent:

1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?
1983-LMC-DDR-Thoughts?

Looks to be a CW spread on ONE, not a CCW spread as on coop's images. The images coop shows are WDDR-003 on Wexler's (1DR-002 on CC).

Thanks for all the images and comparisons Coop. What exactly does this mean? Is there actual doubling? Is this WDDR-002?

Makes sense Joseph, as WDDR-002 is less strong than WDDR-003

Certainly looks like a DDR, but I'm not familiar with one with that rotation. Look at the "O" in ONE against the others to see if any of the listed ones have a clockwise spread (as noted by josephm99). Could be a new one.

Thanks Bats! Only one to have that rotation is DDR-001 (WDDR-001), WDDR-002 and WDRR-003 have counterclockwise spreads.
