Fairly strong DDR which shows up quite nicely across the tips of both wheats and the EPU. 1938-S Lincoln Wheat cent doubled die - DDR-001 Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 9:00 pm So humbled. We're looking at ONE CENT here, is that right? Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 9:12 pm Look at the upper tip of the left wheat. The left side shows nice doubling. Also visible as a bit of a snowman effect on the first dot which looks like a dot on a dot. Across the whole EPU, all the horizontal bits are much too thick. Bottom of the L and U's in PLURIBUS show this effect best. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 9:44 pm Here is a close-up of tb's coin for those of you who can't blow up the image easily. The doubling on the tips of the wheat stalks is among the best I've ever seen.

Dearborn Moderator United States 97914 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 9:48 pm Thanks for pointing out all the doubling - I did notice the 'LU' thickening but not any of the others. Collecting since 1972.
