We all relish the opportunity to find the elusive 43' copper, 44' steel, 55', 58' DDO, etc.... But for me, this simple variety pictured, is what really peaked my curiosity and interest in searching for doubled dies. I'm not exactly sure why but it just did. I can't express or tell you how long I have searched for and so badly wanted to find this doubled die even though it's not an exceptionally major find (but for me it is!!).
I was in the last few Cents of a common bank roll a little while ago and this guy showed up. I know it's not in the best of shape but I don't care. It will be a memory I won't soon forget.

Great find! Those things are extremely hard to find in any condition and seldom show up. Well done.

A find like this in the wild, after being in circulation for almost 40 years, is amazing!

Congrats on a personal .... .....!

The first major doubled die I found was the big 2014-P DDO with the really fat date. I have 3 of them now.

On Liberty on the bottoms of the devices, on the earlier DDO, you can see the spread there:
