GoodoleAbe New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 11/02/2022 05:34 am yall, our house burnt down, coins survived, so if anyone would please help identify what of his MANY 1917 and 1936 Lincoln cents are most likely going to be DDO, fam an I would understand only opinions, an still be eternally grateful, it's a weird feeling having all these coins from G-PA, who collected raw, and feel useless without knowledge of how to utilize the value and appreciation. Have up to 20 of every cent from 1916D,S,P, to 1959, many are still new looking . Except the 1917 stack and a few others. I will start posting images of each one that I appears double died, I just can't tell with the wear. On these. If my post is against rules I apologize I am human, I love coins, house is ashes still have coins, reaching out only for direction . Thank you Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21614 Posts	Posted 11/02/2022 06:56 am Looks like you have some work ahead of you. FYI, the correct term is Doubled Die. What you have is a regular 1917 Philadelphia mint cent. With nearly 132 million struck, they are fairly common. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 11/02/2022 08:47 am Coin posted is not a doubled die. Here are the three sites we all check; http://www.coppercoins.com/advsearch.php http://varietyvista.com/ http://doubleddie.com/ If you find a coin that you cannot match on one of the sites, feel free to post here on CCF for help.

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 11/02/2022 2:49 pm Sorry to hear about the fire. The websites John1 gave you will tell you if you have a doubled die. Remember every detail of your coin must match every picture of the doubled die that is posted. "SImilar" is not a match. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
