@279, can you please add a nice closeup pic of the doubling? From these pics, I can see the broken post in the number 8 plus a linear plating bubble behind Abe's head.

As Spence said, clear closeups would be great, hope you have it. Markers do not make a doubled die though, the die chip in this location is not uncommon.

Some use DD as an abbreviation of a "doubled die", this would be any doubled die, not just copper plated zinc coins.

What is inside the 8 is a die chip, it has nothing to do with a doubled die. The doubled die you are calling out just happens to have a chip in the same location, that does not make it a doubled die, the doubling does.

die chip in the 8 or a better term used sometimes is a broken post - but they are the same thing.. other than that on this coin I just see DDD or MD. |

It's a common die chip in the lower half of the 8. No numismatic premium.
