Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73679 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 7:11 pm Definitely a DDO. Nice find! I am not sure why other members are saying it isn't. You can see it the best on IGWT. It's FS-101. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 09/12/2023 7:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff

gigi2110 Pillar of the Community United States 1770 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 7:25 pm Hi everyone! Sorry I'm not want to sound meant or rude but I'm not asking if this have DDO, I'm pretty sure it has DDO fs-101. I really appreciate your help or opinion, but That is why I think a lot about putting a coin and asking, there have been few times that I have asked if a coin has a DDO, and most of them say I don't see any DDO here, however in the end they do have a DDO, it seems like they don't look at the images very well. I think it's more comfortable to say I don't see DDO. Thank you to all of you for your opinions!! gigi2110 Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6455 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 7:35 pm I am going to be the voice of disagreement on this one. That doubling lines up way too closely to be a different coin than 1941 1c FS-101. Although there are quite a number of doubled dies for that era of wheat cents, so maybe there is a WDDO variant that matches this coin. I think circulation wear has crushed Liberty flat and removed the subtle details, but the outlines are still distorted and very similar to FS-101. If you look at the Copper Coins 1941P-1DO-001 LDS (not MDS) entry, you will see a cent somewhere between a pristine separated Liberty and the coin above. But these markers look like a spot on match to me. If they aren't, it would be helpful if someone could break down specifically why they aren't a match. My Finds: 1944-D 1c FS-101 / 1941-S 5c FS-501 / 1946-S 1c IMM FS-501 / 2001-P 25c WDDR-003 / 1946 5c FS-801 / 2020-P 5c WDDR #1 / 2020-P 5c WDDR #2 / 2019-P 5c WDDR-004 / 2019-P 5c WDDR-048 / 2014-P 5c WDDR-015 / 2020-P VDDR-003 / 1938 5c WDDR-003 Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6455 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 7:37 pm LOL, as usual, Errers and CuJohn beat me to the punch while I was taking screen captures, typing, and building my case. They are correct, of course (in my humble opinion). Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 7:41 pm Even with the circulation damage on LIBERTY, you can't mistake the way only the bottom of the motto is doubled, which makes it a interesting DD. Report this Post to the Staff
gigi2110 Pillar of the Community United States 1770 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 8:08 pm Thank you guys! Here are some other images take with diferent light. Hope those can be better images so you can see the doubling on it. gigi2110 Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6455 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 8:13 pm Here is the PCGS entry for 1941 1c FS-101. In their Obverse Diagnostics image, their example of Liberty is also almost completely smoothed over. Most of the example coins in their gallery are the same state. Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6455 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 8:16 pm btw, congratulations. That is at least a $100 coin. If you found it in the wild, that is a classic Cherrypicker's Guide cherry pick. =) Report this Post to the Staff
gigi2110 Pillar of the Community United States 1770 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 8:23 pm Thank you @Brandmeister I was trying to figure out the value on this one. I will put it on ebay soon gigi2110 Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/12/2023 8:39 pm My apologies all. I was concentrating on liberty and just not seeing a doubled die with the first set of pics. With the added pics and clicking to enlarge them I see now it is a doubled die. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
