zbrandman New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 10/05/2023 7:42 pm I need help identifying this 1972 penny I found. I think it is a strong candidate for the FS-104 DDO004 variety, but I am not sure. I am new to finding varieties, so a second opinion will help. Let me know if there are any other markers to look for - thanks- Report this Post to the Staff

surfacewave Valued Member United States 169 Posts	Posted 10/05/2023 8:18 pm Does not look like DDO fs104 on wexlers site, it would also help to post a reverse image. Take a look at the following link for 1972. Let us know what you think https://doubleddie.com/384301.html Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 10/05/2023 9:23 pm Yes, it is master die doubling which is common on 1972 coins from all three mints. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 08:14 am zbrandman, to CCF. I agree with master die doubling.The fact that you noticed the doubling tells me you have an eye for error/variety hunting. Good luck,your next find might be the real deal John1 Report this Post to the Staff
