While not the sought-after die 1, DDO-002 is still a very respectable doubled die. One of the stronger "bar under L" examples plus some nice doubling on the 962 of the date. Found this one in a roll.
I know this is a DDO but this one is a bit confusing. The 6 indeed looks smaller as in MD, so is this an example of the DDO coin having a bit of MD also?
You look at the width of the device, which doubling increases, not just the width from the edge to the separation line. I'm quite sure many a searcher has seen one of these and tossed it as MD, which it very much looks like at a glance.
Thanks folks! This one isn't a very nice-looking coin but seemed instructional for searchers who might otherwise miss this one. And sadly it was all alone in the roll.
