These are buggers to see on anything but high grade coins so figured I'd show it here as an example of what these look like. 1946 Lincoln Wheat cent doubled die(s) - DDO-005, DDR-006 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/13/2020 10:35 am I'd call that a VLDS example. When the die flow starts to happen, it is moving into LDS. EDS coins are the ones I enjoy. They and the MDS examples really smile for the camera. Note how clear the devices and fields are on this EDS coin: Edited by coop 10/13/2020 10:42 am Report this Post to the Staff
