CentR Valued Member United States 139 Posts	Posted 11/23/2023 1:10 pm I would really appreciate your opinions. Cons The E in LIBERTY looks chopped off like MD, doubling in the mint mark in the same direction. Maybe Pros? Has some similarities to a 1941-S DDO-001 http://www.varietyvista.com/01a%20L...1SDDO001.htm RTY seem elongated to me vs. the standard coin, not shortened. There are DDOs around this date with RPMs that have a similar look, like the 1940-S DDO-001. http://www.varietyvista.com/01a%20L...0SDDO001.htm I put in my best attempt at assessing shortening vs. elongation and I'm still on the fence. I apologize in advance for my lack of technical expertise in this regard. Edited by CentR 11/23/2023 2:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6495 Posts	Posted 11/23/2023 1:31 pm It does have similarities to the DDO-001, however, it cannot be that specific doubled die. The 001 has a Trumpet Tail S mint mark, and your coin has the precursor mint mark, a smaller, thicker S with a flared hook on the bottom and a rectangular two-sided serif on the top. I checked Wexler and Copper Coins, too, and they had no DDO like your coin. The crushed top to the E says Machine Doubling to me. However the bottom of the IB has a characteristic sway.

CentR Valued Member United States 139 Posts	Posted 11/23/2023 2:36 pm Thank you for your helpful comments. I put up an image of a real 1941s DDO (DDO-001), showing some vague similarity in the RTY doubling in case it is helpful. Great point on the coin I posted having the wrong mint mark to be this variety. Mike Edited by CentR 11/23/2023 2:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff
