Hello everyone! I'm still don't want to give up with the DD, so I found this 1982-D and I don't know if my eyes are tricking me but I think it has something similar to the DDO that is in cooper coin dot com, need your acknowledge to help me confirm or deny if this is DDO or not, I hope the photos are ok I'm you can see the images very well.

Thank you @John and @Merclover.

I know you know a lot more of the coins than me, but I was checking the DDO of 1982 D and P and I see it does not have the same doubling, I'm telling you that because I see a comment from Mr coop that he say the both Denver and Philly were minted in the say placeat that time what means to me it has to be the same doubling. But when I look them at varietyvista, coppercoins, and doubleddie the 1982D and 1982P doesn't have the same doubling, my coin it's not copper it's zinc, 1982D large date zinc. So it doesn't has the same doubling like the Philly copper In addition coppercoins and variety vista has 3 variety of 1982P and coppercoins has 2 for 1982D while varietyvista has just 1 1982D listed and doubleddie has 6 different variety for 1982P and 3 for 1982D.
As I say before you know more than me but what I mean is not all 1982 D And P have the same nice doubling like 1982P copper has. Just keep that in mind please.

Oh btw I do apologize for upload to many photos, sorry John I was trying to put different positions of each one.

Given the images posted, I'm not seeing clear DDO features. Do see what appear to be plating issues in the vicinity of the mint mark, date, and just a trace above TRUST.

Doubled dies are hard to find. Contrary to what youtubers tell you, you won't find too many easy to find in your pocket change. Also, if you look for doubled dies, don't focus on doubling only. Look at the width of the letters/numbers and see if they look stretched. Then look to see if parts of them are wider than they should be. Then look for split serifs. The pointy ends of the letters should be sharp. If they are split, then you might have something. Keep in mind that many doubled dies that are hard to see aren't all that valuable. The ones you hear about are very obvious. Those are the ones worth lots of money... and hard to find. Check out Coop's site or put "finding doubled dies" in the search box. You'll learn even faster! Good luck!

Thank you @Parnelli917 formó the tips.
I watch some trust YouTube channels like blueridgesilverhound he is very trusted youtuber, but I don't talk about youtubers, in my comment I mentioned some trusted web page where you can find real DD, and I check all of 3 page I mentioned and see that not all the DD are strong, there are some that can't be found easily as you say, I know all of that, I don't have coins because I don't use cash, what I do is go to the bank and buy the boxes of penny nickel and quarters, I don't like go through the dimes so I just pick up some rolls time to time. I don't have long time doing this but believe me I go through to many coins, so it's not that I can get some coins pocket change I talking about thousand and thousand of coins.

The think is that I can see the difference between MD and DD but when it come to recognize the doubling in a coin myself that is when I am struggling with it, I know my eye can't catch it and this is very sad for me because after a discover the numismatic world I fall in love with the DD Varieties.

Thank you everyone, I just don't go to give up, I going to keep trying so I will keep to posting some coins here until I find a doubled die coin.

Oh @Parnelli917 I looked at the Mr coop posting few times it's very helpful thank you.

I think so you mixt something. The Denver strike theirs coins and Philadelphia theirs.
For Large Date 1982-D are only 2 DDO's and your coin do not fit the narrative of those DDO's. Go see Wexler site for WDDO-002 and WDDO-003 and you will understand my point of view.

This is a normal large date 1982-D zinc cent. The die state is fresher than average. But that is how thick these devices looked normally. Thus the need for the 1982 Small dates. The master hub was swelling outwards, thus why the devices looks so thick looking.

Hey @silviosi thanks for your point, but, when I say Wexler (doubleddie.com) has 3 1982D variety I was talking in general for the 1982D, and I know the 001 is for small date and the others two are for large day, I read that when I'm doing my searches. And I know each Denver and Philadelphia do their own strike, but I was reading a post that Mr coop made in another spot en he said that at that time they where minted at the same place, I upload a image with what he said. May be I was confused but that is what I understand for what he said. I don't say my coin has DD, because I don't have the experience you all have thats why I'm asking you if this is the right coin or not, I just point that not all the 1982 D or P have the same doubling.

I do apologize with all of you because I don't want you think I'm being rude or so, it's just that I don't want to be more confused than I'm right now. I really do appreciate when you all help me out with my questions.

Now I catch the confusion. COOP wrote that the Dies was manufactured in Phil. with no MM and then ship to different Mints. Till I do not has in hand an really DDO large date also me I confound the thickness of the letters with DDO. Personally I never made parallels between different Mints DDO's or DDR's because will be titanic work.

You was far to be rude. I am glad that you put your points of views because like this many will find out about those DDO's which are not easy to spot. What is funny with Denver DDO's is the reverse will have die cracks (curios thing)

Ohh I understand now what Mr coop was saying, thanks @silviosi, and thanks for point out the reverse crack I will have that in mind too.

But @silviosi what I can tell is that the day I find one of those DDO or DDR I will be laughing of happiness and I will be jumping too

Thank you @Dearborn!
