OK.

Here are the photos of my coin. Could someone also estimate a grade too please?

Thanks.

I don't see any sign of doubling but the pictures aren't sharp enough to render a confident opinion.

There are many official doubled die varieties for which the doubling is so minute that you need a microscope to see it. Frankly, I don't see the appeal of these minor errors and would not pay a premium for them.

Now, the 1955 Doubled Die Lincoln Cent is another story!

I'd guess VF-20.
Is that a hit or a piece of debris at the tip of the nose?
Surfaces look slightly porous but that may just be the photos.

I do not see a 1862DDO listed in my "CherryPickers" guide. Perhaps the variety is so minor or not of any significant interest. According to my "PhotoGrade", this coin grades F-12. Liberty is complete but not sharp so the obverse is a solid F and the reverse also grades F because of the wear at the ribbon bow and knot.

OK Yes, it is a piece of debris.

Thanks all!
