Newmynt New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 01/08/2025 10:46 pm I will start by saying that I am new to this hobby and I'm trying to get my bearings as to what is a good find or not. So I see all these posts and all these videos and all the stuff about the 69s DDO being worth a ton of money. I have three. And every single image or post of someone selling one or having one says there were so much money but I'm not really seeing that many of them being sold for that much money unless I'm looking in the wrong place. If somebody can give me some guidance as to where maybe I can look into selling mine. I honestly am feeling really overwhelmed at the possibility that these coins could be worth so much but I'm also doubting the legitimacy of half these videos and stuff that I see online. I just need a little bit of help if somebody can maybe give me a direction as to what to do with these darn coins I appreciate it in advance and thank you very much for your help Report this Post to the Staff

The real 1969 S DDO is worth tons of money. Although most of the time when people sell them, they are just showing Machine Doubling. Are you able to post pictures of your coin?

Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 01/08/2025 11:49 pm I agree with EV. I looked at the first 8 "1969 S DDOs" in a search at auction. Not one was actually a DDO. You honestly can't miss the big DDO for this one. Here is one sold at auction grade MS 64. https://www.pcgs.com/auctionprices/...386617791771 Report this Post to the Staff

We are locking this topic to prevent posts with "We need images". You will get many more quality responses when there are quality images in the first post of a topic. Please start a new topic when you are able to upload pictures. If needed you can use the testing forum. Tutorials are below. Note: When you start a new topic this one may be removed. So don't panic if you get an email that your topic was removed it's only this one. PC: We highly recommend IrfanView. (Download) (Irfanview Tutorial) Apple Computers: Tutorial here: http://goccf.com/t/466343 Cell Phones (iPhone or Android): First, do not upload cell phone pictures of screens. They are terrible. Please check your camera settings are set to Medium quality. If it uses compression use 70%, it's perfectly fine for the internet. For file type please use WEBP if your phone has it, otherwise JPG. Avoid PNG and GIF, they are horrible choices. Be sure to crop the image to only show the coin. This is a great setup for cell phones. Collecting since 1972.
