jpsi Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 12/20/2023 11:16 pm Hello all, curious to learn whether I've properly identified the features of this coin as the 1983 DDR-003. Thanks! Edited by jpsi 12/20/2023 11:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 12/21/2023 01:28 am It is not the WDDR-003. you seem to have an tilded die which produce MD. Yes look in some parts similar but it is not. Sorry. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73988 Posts	Posted 12/21/2023 02:08 am Definitely not Machine Doubling. The op has the real deal. Die markers (die polishing lines) are there. Jpsi, don't toss it back. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 12/21/2023 02:18 am Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5772 Posts	Posted 12/21/2023 08:54 am Congrats on finding WDDR-003. This is a great learning post as to why it's a good idea to include a link to the variety. Everybody can be on the same page, it makes reference easy for everyone, and the OP might find a necessary edit. (Adding a link has helped me many times to find edits.) https://www.doubleddie.com/828823.html Variety Vista (the " DDR" part of the OPs ID) doesn't have a DDR-003 listed. Wexlers doubleddie.com does have a WDDR-003 as noted by Silviosi. This does appear to be WDDR-003 based on the images of the die scratches below UNITED and other places as pointed out by E&V and the OP. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Edited by Petespockets55 12/21/2023 08:57 am Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 12/21/2023 10:39 am There will be a 1983 WDDR-004 whenever I get out of my Christmas busies and photograph the thing. It's quite nice and I will post it when I get to it. Maybe that should be a goal for today! Report this Post to the Staff
