CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/02/2020 12:13 pm I found this years ago in a small bag of wheat cents I had received as a gift. This is the very first variety I ever found and it's what got me into the cherry picker's guide. Thanks for taking a look! -CH27 This is the original picture I took of this coin when I first started collecting: Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/02/2020 12:41 pm Thanks sheldius, Coop! It is nice to think about how much I wanted to find a single doubled die during that time and then take a look at my binder now. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 12/02/2020 12:43 pm Awesome! If memory serves correct my first found doubled die was a 1955 D LWC DDO-001. Not much of a looker but I was hooked on varieties from then on out. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/02/2020 1:03 pm Thanks Jim! The 1955-D FS-101 is a great find for your first doubled die. I still haven't found that one yet! I believe my first doubled die was a 1964 D half dollar tripled die FS-103 that I found in a junk box. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
CentSation Pillar of the Community United States 713 Posts	Posted 12/02/2020 6:20 pm Nice find. Nice pics. Yours looks like it could be a medium class 6 DDR. Variety Vista only has stages B thru D -- any chance this is a stage A with a different reverse? Edited by CentSation 12/02/2020 6:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/02/2020 7:07 pm I'm thinking the class 6 your are seeing is just some circulation flattening. The dots in EPU aren't enlarged so I'm inclined to think it's not a DDR. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
