Well guess what, I think I found1971P-1DO-004 which is really great as I dont have a lot of luck finding DDO's. But I'm fairly sure this time. Take a look at the photo's and let me know what you think and regards.

Not a match to 1971P-1DO-004

If you are matching the die to this die, it is not the same die. Note the width of the devices are not as wide on the motto devices.

Not a match to 1971 DDO-004 either.

Not a match to WDDO-004 as it is also the same as V.V. listing for DDO-004

Your coin looks like a normal example from what I can see on your images. You coin has been polished many times and the die is in the later die states. There are no spread on the devices that we would see on a DDO. Slight Machine Doubling on the tops of 'WE' and "GOD".

If it is a doubled die, it's too subtle for these old eyes to detect.

On finding doubled die examples... I've been going through mountains of change, and rolls and bags of US coins for many, many, many years. In all that time I've found around 15-20 true doubled die pieces--doubling that can be seen with the naked eye, or easily with 5X magnification or less. Classic DDOs and DDRs are out there, but not in great quantities. Keep looking--don't give up. But, keep your expectations grounded.

DaRukus660, I'm not sure your use of emojis is helpful.

allcoinsaregood, I'm not seeing Doubling either. ijn1944 gave you good advice. Error coins are rare. Keep searching but temper your expectations. Take some time to learn the minting process so you'll know a true error coin when you see it.

Emojis... So retro. I suppose this doesn't qualify as a 'quality post'. Onward!
