2013P Perry's Victory-Possible D/D??

At the inside of the nose, nice and rounded, not flat, a possible doubled die here. So far nothing listed at Wexler's.

I thought this was going to be about an RPM!

Sorry, but it looks like machine doubling to me.

For the record, when someone says D/D it literally means D over D.

DD is translated as doubled die.

However, often times I refer to a 1955 Doubled Die as 1955/55 or a 1972 Doubled Die as 1972/72 but notice that the reference is to numbers and not letters.

D/D = D over D
D/S = D over S
S/S = S over S

et cetera, et cetera, et cetera! (Where "et" = "and" and "cetera" = "others")

 

My reason for this question this time was because I had read that it's possible to have machine doubling and a doubled die at the same time. Not the common but it has happened. But you are probably correct.

 

Oh, youz guyz.... tomatoe/tomato-potatoe/potato. LOL.

 

You guys must have too much time in your hand or something.

 

Nope, I don't carry a pocket watch.

Yes, but unlike the chicken and the egg, the doubled die came first.

Chris

 

Not necessarily. If I started a post with "Pass the Hot Potatoe"..........

I'd never hear the end of it.

Just trying to edumacate you the commonality of certain terms within numismatics.

 

Yeah, well what about the thousands of others who can't spell, can't abbreviate and wouldn't know an acronym from a synonym? You've got your work cut out for you so get to it!

I was just being low down lazy when I typed that in the header.

 

As far as I know, this is the only DDO for that year, and mint mark

 

I know you are just using this as an example, Rick, but honestly, I don't see why this doubled die would be of interest to anyone. If we had a Numismatic Interest Scale of 1-10, I would give this doubled die a minus (-) one.

Try CONCEA they are usually up to date on posting error coins.

 

I would collect them to build a set of them, almost every statehood and now, america the beautiful quarter have them . Remember this is a hobby, should be done in fun, thats my thoughts .

 

Yeah, and there are a lot of sellers on FleaBay having fun taking advantage of uneducated buyers just because some "expert" proclaimed that an error requiring an electron microscope to be seen is worth money.

Hear,hear

 

10x will get the job done, at least for my 30 or so ones I have ..

 

I don't know! Many years ago, reputable experts would have told you that if you can't see the doubling with the human eye, then it isn't worth more than face value.

Chris

 

Well, there goes all the RPM in the toilet, along with almost everything else
