Bill, the proper term is Die Deterioration Doubling ( DDD) - the use is DD is misleading, because those reading will assume "Doubled Die"

here is a 1978 check this one out. the 7 is triple punched. on my coin the DC Regina is doubled. the rest of the inscription is not. so there only one way with that little is doubled. it would have to be the punching. hope this helps compare your coin to this one.

Grelko - the coin you posted is, however, the scarcer large, high 8 (a variety for that year).

Hi spp could you tell me a bit more about the high 8 I had never heard of that variety, do you happen to know how scarce this variety is?

Not overly scarce, but maybe you find one or two in a couple rolls.

Do a search in this forum, you'll see a few posts on this variety.
