Frush New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 12/03/2021 11:53 am Hello Everyone - My first time posting here. Sorry if I screw something up :) While searching I found this 1988 cent that is red and in pretty good condition (can't really tell that in the pics). The doubling is everywhere on the reverse, even the memorial. My main question is that since I don't see this coin on PCGS as a DDR error does that mean this could be the first one found? If so, what's your guess on its value if it is, let's say a 65 Red? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/03/2021 1:46 pm Grading is way off: https://www.PCGS.com/photograde#/Lincoln/Grades Take a closer look at grading examples. Any contact marks/scratches/finger prints would lower the grade even lower, some can turn a coin into a cull coin. (just a face value coin) Report this Post to the Staff
Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7530 Posts	Posted 12/03/2021 1:53 pm I agree with MD, coop summed it up pretty well regarding the grade, if you are really interested to know where abouts the grade stands, you'll need to post a full pictures of both front and the back of the coin.
