Coin is white. Close to unc... Can't find out which one it is. Checked this site: http://www.ikedollardoubledie.com/I can't find one sale on Heritage or ebay. PCGS doesn't have a price guide for it... I don't get it?   Edited by Peaceman

PeaceMan, That reverse looks awfully familiar to me. The some what flattened top east facing end of the "S" The Serif Split on the top left corner of the "E" of E Pluribus Unum and the splits in the islands to the south of Florida on the Earth. Those are the first things I noticed when I found one last year at a small coin shop. It was only after I got home and was able to look at it with a loupe closely did I notice the complex doubling on the top serif of the "1" in the date. and the milder doubling in the "In God We Trust" It turned out to be a 1972 D DDO-1 DDR-1 Some good shots of In God We Trust and the "1" in the date might help. Here is a link to a confirmed 1972 D DDO-1 DDR-1 for comparison at the Ike Group http://ikegroup.sslpowered.com/ikeg...0eb700116393And here is a link to the album of one I found for further comparison http://s485.photobucket.com/albums/...O001-DDR001/I wish you the best with this, One of my favorite Doubled Die Ike's  |

Thanks. OK, I've looked at all of the links and now I'm even more confused. Maybe someone here can help me attribute it: First, my pet giraffe, for the "1" I only see doubling here. No crack down from the "S" like Stewart's...  Next, the "R" in LIBERTY. The bottom left front tip is doubled (only)  Finally, the "7" in the date that is notched.  I only have a 16X so bear with the pictures. Going to inspect other areas now. Tell me what I need to take a pic of and I'll try it. Edited by Peaceman

PeaceMan, See if you can get some shots of "In God We Trust" I can see the complex Doubling in your Giraffe  "1" I did not mean there was a crack in the "S" of States but that the top of the "S" at the end of it at the serifs looks like it was cleaved off or close to mechanical (Strike) Doubled By the way Nice shots Edited by stewart

My mistake
I now see what you are talking about
"Crack Down to the "S"
I think that is just a die scratch on mine

Having problems getting good pics. I see zero doubling here. It's a worn die too.... Here's a pic of the obverse:  |

Peaceman, You are right there is no doubling that I see in the "In God We Trust" like the 72 D DDO-001 DDR-001 But there is doubling in the "1" and "7" in the date also The "R" Which leads me to believe it is another DDO DDR die pair Not sure which I am by no means an expert The reason I know about the 72 D DDO-001 DDR-001 Is because I found one and posted it on the Ike Group site and the very helpful gentlemen there helped me to identify it. Regardless you have a nice variety coin there Terry |

Peaceman: Does your coin have a die dot in the upper left side of the O in OF on the reverse? Here is a pic of the OF on the 72d I just found this week-end and it has the die dot. http://ikegroup.org/1972Dddo1-ddr1.htm* I found 2 of these in the past 2 weeks and both coins have this die marker!* Can you post a pic of the O in OF? If you got this marker, your coin is difinitely a 1972D DDO / DDR001 (IMHO!) Chuck.  Edited by chuckster 125
