hey everyone! Longtime collector, newbie variety hunter here. I was examining a 1971-D Kennedy half dollar from an uncirculated mint set and I think I may have found DDR-003, 3-R-VI when comparing my coin to variety vista. Can anyone please confirm or deny this finding. I am still learning how to identify true doubling. Thanks in advance!

Seem to be a MD and a triple also not sure, the photos sometimes play on. Between the two LL from dullard you have a Die Scratch. Then many others things which show an end of the life of the Die. Look at the stars, the UNUM.

. Any way you can get rid of the glare? It says that the obvers is also a DDO-10, is yours? http://varietyvista.com/12%20Kenned...201971-D.htm

I am trying to figure out the best way to get rid of the glare, might have to build a light diffuser.

Here are some pictures of the obverse. I think I am seeing DDO-010 but its not as pronounce as Variety Vista

Best to put more devices in the sets of images.
I try to put 4 devices on Liberty. Libe one image erty in the second image. On the Motto 'In God' one image, 'We Trust" Second image. Date and mintmark area in the same image. So I end up with 5 images: (Click on images to enlarge them larger)

With a wider shot you can see if the devices are enlarged and showing spread. With too close of shots, perspective is removed.
When you can add side by sides with a normal coin that helps even more to see the comparison:

To get the second coins (normal) devices, Go to PCGS and create images from a normal one there. They are hug images and you can make them the same size as your images. (I usually enlarge the full images to 8,000 Pixels wide and then from them to the desired width of 1200 Pixels wide. I also rotate the images to the same exact direction so they match up exactly width sizes. (I've probably edited close several hundred thousands of images) So I do this in a definite pattern. (Sometimes it changes to a more definite pattern as I go forward)

I think it is DDR3 and DDO10, along with machine damage.

I'm seeing the splits and notching.
Congrats on a nice find.

I don't think your reverse or obverse photos match the CONECA listed 71D DDO-010/DDR-003 3-R-VI, or any of the six reverses in the listing. It all looks like MDD to me. Attaches are a couple of photos of the 71D DDO-010/DDR-003.

Curious what type of camera you are using to capture those photos? They look spectacular and would definitely be an upgrade from my Plugable Digital Microscope.
