jfeed Pillar of the Community United States 1259 Posts	Posted 10/28/2024 5:13 pm I had an old opened cellophane 1961 mint package that had fallen apart so I decided to look at them before putting each one in a 2 X 2. It's really hard taking photos that will show the possible DDO, but I'm hoping you can see the DDO-006 or 007? Thanks for your opinion and help.. http://www.varietyvista.com/11%20Fr...1PDDO006.htm Report this Post to the Staff

Tacc Pillar of the Community United States 3535 Posts	Posted 10/29/2024 1:59 pm Worth mentioning, that on proof coins , it is normal to have that very slight bit of "doubled die look" because Proof coins are struck more than once during minting. When you magnify so extremely you're gonna see that. It is normal. Report this Post to the Staff
