Double Mint Pillar of the Community United States 810 Posts	Posted 04/23/2011 05:13 am I cant seem to find this one listed. I was thinking 001 or 009 but theres a difference. I tried getting good pics of Liberty and the motto but pics were to blurry. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/23/2011 06:52 am No pro but I don't think it's a DDO. I have found a few of these and mine look diff then yours,mine shows a separation line and look thicker/wider. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Double Mint Pillar of the Community United States 810 Posts	Posted 04/23/2011 07:10 am John there is a seperation line. Theres even a split in the nine. If this isn't a DDO then what would cause this to a coin and not be a DDO. Edited by Double Mint 04/23/2011 07:26 am Report this Post to the Staff

Double Mint Pillar of the Community United States 810 Posts	Posted 04/23/2011 09:01 am I know youre not a pro but you know more than you think you do. The 8s dont look right to me though. I just want an explanation of what caused this if not a DDO. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/23/2011 11:45 am The arrows are pointing to where the light is on the coin's devices. Try rotating the coin 180 degrees and check again. The coin appears normal from what I can see. Here is a 1988 DDO. See if this helps? Report this Post to the Staff
