tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 05/30/2021 02:00 am Just pulled this out of a blue Whitman album. Looks like VG details with a fair-sized scratch on the face. Still shows the doubling fairly well as some in this condition aren't so clear with the doubling. 1917 Lincoln Wheat cent doubled die - DDO-001, FS-101 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/30/2021 09:10 am On this one look for the inner loop on the '9': Like on your coin it remains, regardless how bad the circulation flattening gets. While this looks like Machine Doubling, its not. These devices are wider than normal. MD only reduces the normal devices. Edited by coop 05/30/2021 09:35 am Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 05/30/2021 12:51 pm Very nice! These are super tough to find. I know the scratch would be a bit of drag but I'd rather have a scratch than a cleaning. I always prefer original surfaces with light damage or corrosion rather than an unnatural cleaning. Your example looks just fine! -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 05/30/2021 1:46 pm Thanks for the kind words! These are always kind of special for me as one pretty similar to this was one of the first doubled die wheat cents I ever found. Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5785 Posts	Posted 05/31/2021 11:11 am Congrats on a special variety. This variety in VF was also one of the first varieties I found and got me hooked on varieties. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
