MD13 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 02/17/2023 5:08 pm Hello... I would like to get an opinion on this 1971 s cent. I believe it is a DDO. The mint mark appears to have doubling to the southwest of the S. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/18/2023 11:45 am Just extreme die wear. Note that it is in the direction of the closest rims. So it is die wear. Can't be DDD as these dies were made with the older die process of three hub processes or more on some larger designs. (higher profile coins) The DDD examples are on the single squeeze processes. (Lower profile coins) Report this Post to the Staff
