I was going through my doubled die collection and sorting out all my extras and they brought up an old curiosity that I have yet to lay to rest.

Anyone happen to have any BU or MS examples of 1970 Canadian pennies? If so, would those who do mind checking to see if they spot this on any of the dates?

All of the higher grade examples I have of this DDR came from the same roll so I have 50 of them. However, all the other 1970 coins I have are from circulation so finding a good example I can compare to that was not from the BU roll did not turn out too well.

I have a couple of BU rolls on the way but figured I would ask you guys on here if you have come across any lately.


Thank you in advance!

here is a coin they look very similar to me. I believe our coins match. john you have enough mag to do this. john I have found out. watch the surface of your coins. I have learned these little metal curls. that lay on the surface of our coins are designer working material. this adds value some thing to watch for. I hope this helps you have a good one

john just went through 10 1970 coins. they all match yours. here is another coin. the end of that branch is doubled so are the letters.

Hi John I sorted through about 300 circulated 1970 and found 18 examples of your coin 6 of which are in bad shape so kept 12. I don't sell coins so I don't worry about grade . I would "guess" these are G to VF. Most all have good detail on the 7 . Soon as I figure out this scope camera I will post a photo . On another note I sorted through over a 1000 1976 and found 0 of your doubled die

chadcoins,
There are 2 versions of the 1970 DDR, a collector on the CCF back in 2012/2013 (i think) it was, found a DDR on the 1970 but only shows doubling in "CANADA" and no doubling present on the date.

A few months ago, I aquired over a dozen rolls of MS/BU quality 1970's and a good handfull of circulated rolls and found a full roll of the 1970 DDR showing doubling on "1970" + "CANADA".

The 1970 DDR with only "CANADA" doubled is more common, finding the 1970 DDR with the "1970" + "CANADA" both doubled, has proven to be harder to find.

oldmike,

Thank you for taking the time to look, an I'm glad you found yourself a couple examples!

I usually dont sell coins either unless I have doubles or find something that I think may interest collectors, only reason I mentioned BU/MS in my original post was because it is easier to compare to higher grades.

My entire coin collection is about 90% Doubled Dies, so the obsession is very real.

As for the 1976 DDO, its a recluse that refuses to come out of hiding no matter how hard I look (and I look extremely hard, no exaggeration). I actually scooped up all of the 1976 BU rolls I could find on ebay and came up empty handed.
