Quite rare that I find any small date coins in rolls, but this one popped out tonight. And, it's a fairly cool DDO as well.

The coin shows a nice counterclockwise spread on most all devices, but since the small date devices are pretty soft to start with it's not super crisp doubling.

hello tropicalbats,

I dont think it is WDDO-028. The mintmark looks a little off and the shape of the zero in the date is shaped differently.

I didn't show it, but the die marker is unmistakable for this one.

checked the wexler site ... the tilting of the date in the photo got my calibrated EYEBALL method out of wack.

i am wrong...

both WDDO-028 and 1DO-026 look good.

This one is particularly difficult in part due to the relatively minor nature of doubling, secondly to the overall thin devices on the small date cents in general, and thirdly due to the scarcity of small date cents in general.
