Punkie17 New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 11:19 pm Hello, I have this very nice detailed penny that looks like its too high upon the obverse and wondering if that is an offset. And I believe it has a small Cud or die crack touching the bottom of the first 9 in the date. The penny looks to have some light friction on the beard and cheek and a few of the letters on the obverse could be a DD and/or some deterioration mixed in with it. The reverse looks in really good shape as the wheat don't look to have any wear to them. Would this be a good candidate to send in and get appraised? I know its not the S mint but just wondering if its worth having a third party look at it and maybe grade it as well as noting the errors if any. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

It may not be but just sayin'. I'm sure someone else will chime in with more info on the grading. Report this Post to the Staff

Not seeing a Cud or a Die Crack. Not worth sending it to a TPG. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 03/12/2024 11:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/13/2024 04:14 am I am not seeing a DDO on your Lincoln Cent Cuds always include the rim. Not worth sending in,but if you feel the need to use ANACS,they cost the least. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2954 Posts	Posted 03/13/2024 06:50 am The only known DDOs are on the word Liberty and the date, and both have a distinct look when one looks at the coin. We here on the website in the search bar have a few posted up, myself included. The linear mark on the L on Liberty is probably a scratch sometime post mint. These cents were also well struck as a general rule for the 1910 decade. with you on light rub on the high points so yes, AU-58 should be an estimated grade point. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95785 Posts	Posted 03/13/2024 07:59 am Sorry, I'm not seeing the '09 DDO on this coin. It is in nice condition, but some of that you indicated could be minor circulation hits. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 03/14/2024 2:12 pm There are only 2 DDOs for 09, this is nowhere close to either. https://www.coppercoins.com/advsearch.php Report this Post to the Staff
