CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 08/08/2022 10:13 pm I set this one aside on a tray, just can't remember where I picked up, or how long ago, but it's definitely showing a lot of similarities to the example of DD0-002 Large date copper on coppercoins? My scale only goes to 1 decimal, but shows it weighing 3.0, just wanted to see what yall thought, hopefully we have clear enough pics Report this Post to the Staff

CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 08/08/2022 10:14 pm I left that reverse misaligned, that's the MAD amount, after flipping straight over Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5775 Posts	Posted 08/08/2022 11:39 pm I can see class 6 thickness on the U (TRUST), E (WE), and LI (LIBERTY). Coppercoins 1DO-002 is a class 5 and shows up as a spread on IGWT and LIBERTY on EDS examples. Here's a link to Wexlers site. http://doubleddie.com/828781.html You might find markers that match one of these. There's quite a few. BTW- Copppercoins uses 1DO for its Doubled Die Designations & Variety Vista uses DDO. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 08/09/2022 04:23 am Are you saying you think it is a rotated die or a MAD=mis aligned die? John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 08/09/2022 07:17 am I checked the rotation in the image using Photoshop. If the picture is accurate the rotation measures out at 25° +/- 1°. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

John1 The OP maybe should have used "tilted reverse image" instead of misaligned. A rotated reverse is prevalent on that variety and can be a marker according to coppercoins.

CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 08/09/2022 07:51 am Yea thats what I was referring to about the MAD, I'm sure my wording was incorrect, but was reading about the MAD mentioned on coppercoins on this variety l Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96214 Posts	Posted 08/09/2022 7:05 pm Can you post up a 'mirror picture of this coin? So we can see both sides at the same time? Collecting since 1972.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/09/2022 9:49 pm The DDO-002 is a lot stronger than this one. It looks like a normal large date to me: Report this Post to the Staff
CCB420 Pillar of the Community United States 588 Posts	Posted 08/11/2022 08:09 am My pics aren't the sharpest, but I can see some of the separation lines on some elements? Not all the elements,but on a few? Dearborn, not sure I follow the mirror pic suggestion, plus would likely take a week or so to figure it out Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/11/2022 12:54 pm They devices would need to be wider to be the DDO. I'm not seeing that on your coin. That is just a normal large date normal die that you have. The spread is very obvious on the DDO. Edited by coop 08/11/2022 12:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff
