gsp193 Pillar of the Community United States 975 Posts	Posted 09/29/2021 12:33 am I compared this to the DDO listed in Variety Vista and I believe it to be the type B, but I may be way off again. Any help or comments appreciated, I am still trying to learn about DD. Edited by gsp193 09/29/2021 11:19 am Report this Post to the Staff

gsp193 Pillar of the Community United States 975 Posts	Posted 09/29/2021 04:48 am I was trying to figure out how to get rid of the doubled pics, my apology. DDO-001, 1-0-II-C+VI is what I compared it to but I am trying to learn so not sure, thanks for looking! Edited by gsp193 09/29/2021 04:57 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/29/2021 11:45 am Looking at V.V they show only one DDO: http://www.varietyvista.com/12%20Ke...4PDDO001.htm 1-O-II-C+VI Class 6 Quote: Description: Medium spread on LIBERTY Wexler only show one also, (the same one) http://doubleddie.com/2456337.html Quote: 1984-P 50¢ WDDO-001 "Best Of" Variety Description: A strong Class VI spread towards the center shows on IGWT, LIBERTY, the upper hair details, and slightly on the date. But I feel this is not a DDO. I feel it is Machine Doubling on images #4 & #5. Note the affected areas are on the outsides of the devices. Nothing is enlarged like there is on the DDO-001 and WDDO-001 examples. So I'm in the not a DDO camp. Edited by coop 09/29/2021 12:22 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/29/2021 12:45 pm Note the spread made the center bar on the 'E' taller shortening the area above the cross bar. Report this Post to the Staff

atrox001 Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 09/29/2021 2:37 pm I agree with coop, not a DDO. The doubling in your photos show MDD (Machine Damage Doubling), note the MDD on the R of LIBERTY and the N of IN. Report this Post to the Staff
3193zd Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 09/29/2021 3:05 pm I would like to see photos from another angle the E,R,T,and Y. Yes there is Machine Doubling but that doesn't rule out doubling. Report this Post to the Staff

gsp193 Pillar of the Community United States 975 Posts	Posted 09/29/2021 8:46 pm 3193zd here are some more pics, I can take some diff angles tomorrow if needed Thanks for looking!! Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34426 Posts	Posted 09/29/2021 8:50 pm Ok that is weird. The letter R in LIBERTY really looks like the tip is split in your first pic, but the effect is much less obvious in your follow-up pics.
