Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73658 Posts	Posted 10/16/2024 4:44 pm Not a DDO. The 1955 Philadelphia Wheat cent has the big DDO. http://doubleddie.com/287301.html Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6454 Posts	Posted 10/16/2024 6:22 pm The way I learned what doubled die coins look like was: 1. A whole bunch of searching through a giant pile of weathered wheat cents, 2. realizing that I didn't really know what I was looking for, 3. reading the double die formation article on Wexler, 4. comparing Variety Vista, Wexler and PCGS for the CPG FS-10x/80x varieties, 5. renewed searching with acceptable results. You aren't gonna find a needle in a haystack until you know what a needle looks like. Report this Post to the Staff

Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10478 Posts	Posted 10/17/2024 6:13 pm What would make you wonder if this a DDO cent? The die chips in the date? Any little bit of information helps us to explain it better than just saying "Not a DDO" - helping you to learn better. Report this Post to the Staff
