i just want to clarify for anyone who finds double dates, they are not that rare, years ago I scored 300 bank rolls from the bank.
ive opened probably 20 or so rolls and found numerous "varieties and errors" in almost every roll,
i thought I would sell them for big bucks but I found them hard to sell for anything above a couple bucks. I found it alot more profitable selling unopened rolls ranging $20 - $80 a roll, I still have a few boxes left,after I flooded the market on ebay I decided to put the rest away for a few years.
story here.

Just a note, the double date is neither a variety or an error, it is Die Deterioration Doubling. But there is an actual doubled die obverse on 1979 1 cent you have a good of finding one in bu with that many rolls gidjit

I agree with oldmike.

If I had access to that many BU rolls of 1979 I would be having a field day lol. A lot of common deterioration examples I'm sure, but I would be curious to see how many DDO's are floating around in those rolls.

gidjit, if you decide to liquidate more rolls anytime soon, my email is open on my profile.

Certainly, the 1979 DDO is worth the hunt - I am still looking for a BU example.
