You almost called it out right, its 2021-D 1¢ WWHO-001 from the Wexler files and there are millions of them out there, that is a doubled working hub, worth one cent. Label it as such so you will remember. LINK https://doubleddie.com/2587137.html

@makecents Yes there are but there's one less now and maybe posting it will help the new members see it, that who may not EVER find one of those millions!

I was just trying to help you understand. You called it a DDO, it is not. DDO stands for doubled die obverse, it is not doubled from a working die, which is what a DDO is, but a doubled working hub, which creates MANY more of this doubling.

Thanks for that info Makecents. I have always struggled to understand the working hub doubling. I struggled with it on my 1968-D's and as it turned out I have 40 of them all working hubs and zero DDO's. Tough to tell the difference sometimes.

A great example would be the 1972 cents. John1

makecents, I hope this doesn't muddy the water.
