Ok, a little bit of shameless clickbait in the title but I am still happy to have found DDO-002!! Machine Doubling is actually a marker for this which is kind of funny I think. The short die gouge above "N" seems to change based on which stage you have because this is not the same ESE one listed on Wexlers site. the other markers do line up. Thanks for looking!

Just Machine Doubling. Note the date and mintmark are showing the same thing. The dies and mintmarks are two different processes. So if you see MD on the date and mintmark, it is Machine Doubling not a DDO or a RPM. Just a normal die coin with the devices altered after the strike. The 1968-1972 cents had a lot of this. Even the big DDO for this year is showing the same event on the doubled dies.
1969-S-1c-DDO-Not-Just-MD!
Note the date is showing hub doubling? But the mintmarks are normal, but both are showing Machine Doubling. (note the yellow arrows. They are pointing to the Machine Doubling on these coins) So a doubled die can have Machine Doubling, but Machine Doubling doesn't make a doubled die. On these 4 examples I posted, it is Machine Doubling on a doubled die. But on your coin, you are seeing Machine Doubling on a normal die for that year.

Congrats on the find. I agree it is DDO-002. Here's the link to VV.-

The MD on the MM is pretty common as most of us are aware but the separation on the 9 and 6 matches nicely as well as the markers you provided.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Going to have to disagree with you on this one Coop. OP says it's DDO-002 and it has all the PUP's plus all the die markers from both VV and Wexler.

I do see the Machine Doubling on the first 9 and the MM, but interestingly enough VV lists this as a diagnostic for EDS:

A true 1969-S Doubled Die Obverse cent will not have doubling on the mintmark as the mintmark was punched into the die separately. On a machine-doubled coin, the mintmark will be doubled along with most or all of the legends and devices.

A true 1969-S Doubled Die Obverse cent will have strong and prominent doubling on the date. The doubling appears on a south-east direction and is more prominent on the date, the word LIBERTY, and the words IN GOD WE TRUST.


I think those who jump fast will learn more from the really facts.

Yes I know very well. Your first 9 has like a DDO-002 but much more big. The 6 I do not discern very well from photo (is a little bit flue) but I see is far from number. In the both DDO if the MM is double is MD. The both DDO of 69-S has same orientation. Hope help you better.

If you think and fill it is, send to ANACS for certification. Like this we will learn also and you will have peace in your self.

These are really quite hard to find, so a great snag. I have one slabbed by ANACS that I bought but after getting it I honestly think the doubling is so minor that it is either a different die or a late die state that doesn't show much and the coin probably shouldn't have been attributed as no way to verify it as -002.

Brought my laptop out into the woods tonight to catch up on some data entry and with phone hotspot got a chance to look at some things I haven't had time to browse lately. Two more weeks til end of summer bat season. I have had three days off since the first week of June so looking forward to the end at this point.

Best to all!

Thanks TB, I crossed referenced your post about finding one of these a few years back. We have the same die gouge above "N". This coin has a hint of a die clash on reverse under the memorial W which I don't see listed as a marker anywhere though.

Good luck on the final push through work! See you back here soon.
