Just curious on what approximate value would be. I found this the other day going thru my 90% stack of Kennedy's! Thanks
Nice coin. I also would like to know the value of a tripled die coin. Have you posted it in the error coin forum?
I did an e-bay search and found a few of these DDO-005 coins.(TDO-005) They seem to carry a good premium in an MS slab. When you posted your coin I checked my coins (All 4 of them) The one I had in with my bullion coins is a DDO-005. Needless to say I was quite excited about that. I would not ever have noticed it but for your post. Thank you for posting your coin.
Wow that's an awesome find Alurid! I'm glad you were inspired to find one! I have a stack of '65-'69 40%'ers I'm gonna go through and see what I can find as well!
Wow! Thank you so much! That picture tells it all. But, this is a triple DDO, rather than a "strike" doubling? That it came from a bad die?
Yes, The die used to strike this coin had a triple image imprinted into it. http://doubleddie.com/58222.html
Strike Doubling will have a shelf like appearance on each digit making the letter or digit smaller. Edittt... You can see in the pics how the letters and digits have separated serif's.
Man... I was given a 1964 half in change at Little Caesar's the other day. The coin looked brand new until I showed my dad and he dropped it. Put a nice big dent on it. The ridges on the side of this coin are so sharp it looks like they could cut you. I was devastated. Wonder what that drop could have cost me?
TO ALL NEWBIES: This is an excellent article on DD's. I almost think it should be required reading to join. And, that's coming from this newbie.
