This one probably should be in the CherryPickers' Guide as it is a very nice DDR. Seller listed it as "uncirculated" but they are a known seller that reprocesses cleaned coins to pass off as uncirculated, and so as expected it is MS-details. But I like it and the first time I've ever seen one of these in any MS condition. 1924-S Lincoln Wheat cent doubled die DDR-001

Beautiful example! Quite strong, I agree it should be considered for the cherrypicker's guide.

Nice coin! And I agree should have a number. I got a 43P DDR-002 recently and I think it should have one too. I do though wonder how mountain values gets straight grades out of those purple coins. Possibly a connection with NGC and I feel like in general they will pass a toned coin much easier than PCGS.

Nice coin, and great condition, even if a bit cleaned.

Thanks folks! Hoping maybe this variety will end up in the next CPG, but for now just a great DDR. I also don't understand how that seller gets all those obviously treated coins slabbed by NGC, but they do. When I sell MS-details cleaned coins they always are the ones that buy them. If I get a chance I'll post another coin I got from them, a 1929-D that looks like a minor new RPM. Coin was listed, as usual, as uncirculated, but when you put it under the scope in the right direction you can still see the original cleaning scratches on the surface.
