My first doubled die LMC! 1983 DDR-001. Not in the best shape. Was wondering if anyone knew the value of a coin like this. Not sure what it would grade?
Oh kewl. Looks like it to me too but I'm not a DD expert. This is one of those finds that makes me want to look. But I don't. I do hoard all my change though just in case I ever want to start searching coins for errors. just figured out your screen name too .. I - Like - LMC (lincoln memorial cents). LOL .. yeah, I'm slow at some things.
I compared it to this for identification markers ==> http://www.varietyvista.com/01b LC Doubled Dies Vol 2/1983PDDR001.htm
ebay sold auctions ? .. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=1983 DDR 001 cent penny&_sacat=0&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1 but wait for other experts to chime in before you jump up and down. @paddyman98 @Rick Stachowski @furryfrog02 @Fred Weinberg
Just my guess: It will be a BN (Brown) cent, so that will drop the value. The RD (Red) color gets the better value. From the circulation wear, it would maybe grade 30 to 40. Here is a link from PCGS that puts the value around $30-$35. https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1983-1c-ddr-fs-801-036-bn/38061
