Good evening! I'm fairly new to coin collecting, and I normally do any value based research myself as much as possible, but between my lack of experience and research techniques I can't seem to pin down the answer. I have identified this as a 1941 DDO-001, 1-O-I-CCW according to VarietyVista, possibly stage B but most likely stage C, and I can't determine whether or not this coin is worth grading. Help a newbie out? I included a Ss of VV's listing of this coin for reference material.

Looks like you may have a match. Wished your close ups were just a little better.

If I wasn't using a year old phone camera and a jewelers loop I suppose they would be a little better lol they're the best I can get though unfortunately. The question I have is whether or not it is worth having it graded, or if it's value is low enough that it's better as it is.

I don't think it would be worth grading in my opinion.

It's not worth getting graded but it is DDO-001. Very cool find! This is a desirable doubled die and certainly a fun find.

Very nice die 1, and a great find. Not far enough up the grading table to be worth grading, though, as the grading fees would eat up too much of the coin's actual value.
