My2cent Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 06/20/2021 10:14 pm If you saw my other post you know that I received three possibly four different doubled die coins from one store today. This is the first coin I'm going to share with you. It's listed on Wexler's as 2008-D 25¢ HI WDDO-001. There was no die markers noted but it is pretty clear what it is. I do however have a small question about the reverse. What happened to his chest arm and foot? Is it Machine Doubling or die chip and deterioration? Would like to know. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/20/2021 10:26 pm Your image doesn't show that area of the bottom of the ear lobe: http://www.doubleddie.com/719776.html The mark on the foot is a die chip. If it were a doubled die, the doubling would be on the earlobe or on the motto. Report this Post to the Staff

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 06/20/2021 11:50 pm The ear lobe has circulation deterioration. Coop is wright with the very small die chip at the foot. It is not an peace wish by really collectors. Sorry. Report this Post to the Staff
My2cent Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 06/21/2021 12:24 am Really? From the second picture I would have been so sure about it. I guess I am not the expert though. Report this Post to the Staff
westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 06/21/2021 03:12 am I'm not quite sure but the photo Coop linked is the 2012 Philly NP coin My2cent is trying to show the 2008 SH Denver coin. I blew up the full Obverse photo and it does kind of look like Wexler's photo, then again I am no expert in modern coins, I know my 2 cent pieces. But I am seeing something that looks like doubling on the bottom of the earlobe just like the photo on her 2009-D Hawaii WDDO-001 coin. Better photos are sure needed. http://www.doubleddie.com/190785.html The very last photo on the link above. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 06/21/2021 10:13 am Looks like a possible doubled earlobe, but it's hard to say definitively from the pictures. These are very hard to photograph in my experience, so I understand the struggle. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/21/2021 10:29 am To me it could be a contact mark part way up on the lobe? Note how the lobe is doubled, meaning it rises higher if on the lobe or raised above the fields. I'm just not seeing that yet on your coin. Later on I'll make side by sides of a normal coin and your image and compare them to see if the love is divided or not. The lobe should be larger than normal, not divided. (Looks like a contact mark affected that area?) Edited by coop 06/21/2021 10:32 am Report this Post to the Staff
My2cent Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 06/21/2021 3:26 pm Okay please do and let me know what the results are because it really looks like another earlobe to me I would like to know for sure Report this Post to the Staff
