I'm going to try to post a photo of a 1929 Lincoln Cent that appears to be a DDO, particularly around the numerals of the date, and perhaps also Lincoln's bow tie. Please let me know what you think. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Uechi_Ryu_Dad New Member United States 14 Posts	Posted 07/16/2011 08:46 am Appreciate your thoughts, John. I bought this coin via ebay several months ago, and I saved and copied the photo that the seller posted! I'm considering buying one of those digital microscopes that connect to a computer to view/print detailed coin pictures myself, but I haven't made that commitment yet! Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 07/16/2011 12:17 pm No mention of a 29 double die in the book Looking Thruough Lincoln Cents but you may want to try the author of that book. Try https://www.coppercoins.com Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 07/18/2011 08:43 am The person that has that web site is Charles D. Daughtrey and is usually around here. He has two books out on Cents called Looking Through Lincoln Cents. Not sure but I think you could buy one from that web site of his. Supposed to have a few other web sites where he sells coins too. Odd that he hasn't been popping up here lately. Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 07/18/2011 3:15 pm This coin shows a combination of die wear and Machine Doubling. It is not a doubled die. Report this Post to the Staff
