1943-D Lincoln Steel Cent RPM & DDRthe placement and rotation does not match any the 22 rpms listed on VV the DDR I believe matches ddr-006 the RPM looks to have two notches so maybe a d/d/d but definitely a rpm or d/d? with something going on in the 3 in date and b in liberty looks like a match DDR 6 look closely at the mint mark it might be same rpm on vv DDR the dots and letters are elongated also has the markers Die Crack from O of ONE and die chip in T of CENT http://www.varietyvista.com/01a%20L...3DDDR006.htm          Edited by OcalaFlorida

What does the edge look like? It seems too shiny. John1  |

Nice RPM and DDR! The obverse might be a DDO. Errers and Varietys.

Quite cool to have a DDR on a steel cent. I can see the doubling on the E of EPU. Can someone point out the remaining doubling? Variety Vista calls it a strong spread, but I'm having a hard time seeing it. |

Congrats on the find. Very nice images. Quote:
... Can someone point out the remaining doubling? ... "Description: Strong spread on E PLURIBUS UNUM, Left upper wheat, C and T of CENT, TES of STATES, RICA of AMERICA, lower Right wheat and stem." The first dot is oval as well. EDIT: Can you post some nice clear closeups of TRUST and maybe the bow tie? Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

I could be wrong but would find it hard to believe that three professional attributors missed a DDO on this die combo. It's obviously the same combination of dies too, as I stated above about the listed RPM. Added: And the edge pics the the Moderator asked for might help answer some questions about the abnormalities that folks are seeing on the obverse. If it were re-plated, this would come into play. -makecents-
