Found this 38-D Wheat cent today while searching through some older rolls I've recently acquired. I can't see any other doubling except what is shown. Haven't looked it up yet but the cent seems to be in pretty nice condition.

Looks good! Great find!

There aren't many DDRs for that year so try to match some die markers.

Don't forget mintmark placement. (Saves a lot of time.)

Check the mintmark on your coin. You should find rpm#002 under that grime.

I'll be darn, you're right. I'll have to give it a soak in acetone to see if any of that black will come off......

Great find. 100% pure rubbing alcohol works too sometimes.
