Coinquestador1 Valued Member United States 92 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 4:45 pm Please describe the doubling. Being a rookie, I don't see doubling. What did you see initially that told you there was doubling on this coin. I'm not disagreeing with you, just trying to learn. Thanks in advance. RP Report this Post to the Staff
HGK3 Pillar of the Community United States 575 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 4:51 pm On wheat cents, reverse doubling is most commonly (but not always) found on EPU. On this cent you can see the first dot, between E & P, is elongated. You can also see the bottom of the E, L & U are thicker than normal. That sometimes looks like circulation flattening, but notice the top of the U and L are not fatter than normal, which indicates it's doubling and not flattening. Report this Post to the Staff
Sarge50 Pillar of the Community United States 768 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 4:52 pm @Coinquestador1 I was told if the DOT between E • PLURIBUS • UNUM was egg shaped. It was a DDR and if you look at the foot of the E and The L it is very fat! Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 7:13 pm Looks like DDR-002 but you can fairly easily verify that by looking at the mint mark positions of the three strong DDR's from this year on VV. Report this Post to the Staff

sheldius Pillar of the Community United States 1204 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 10:52 pm Looks like a very nice DDR. But check out other dots too. Edited by sheldius 11/05/2021 10:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 11/06/2021 10:12 am IMO it's not doubling. It's a later die state. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97905 Posts	Posted 11/06/2021 10:38 am I think it IS a DDR. I can see the 'snowman effect' on the dots and a thickening of the bottom of the L and U. I do believe that Tropicalbats had just posted a coin with the same type of doubling. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5792 Posts	Posted 11/06/2021 11:18 am Definitely class 6 doubling on EPU and that right wheat stem has elephantitis. Congrats. A later die state might cause Die Deterioration between the letters and the rim or other "mushiness", but this one is a DDR with honest circulation. 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
