    If nothing else than at least she's beautiful. The color is amazing, gold toned and looks brand spanking new.

    last pics... his ear is what made me look again, his earlobe is huge and looks like he has a tumor at his neckline. Plus the back of his neck next to his hairline. Lots more too.

    My first question to you - Have you checked it against any known doubled dies?

    If you truly have the rare one, when you look at Liberty it makes you feel like you lost your glasses or had too much to drink.

    Sorry, I just tried posting before realizing that I wasn't logged on. New phone...

    Anyways, yes I did check varieties prior to posting and found very close similarities but was also hoping to get some opinions from y'all on it. Got it back at Buffalo Bills gravesite back in like 97. Just got around to looking at it lol! Here are some more pictures I was able to get of it. I'm in Estes Park on vacation ATM so I'm sorry it took awhile to respond.

    Thank you,
    Rachel

    Couple different angles here that show the ear.

    I also meant to tell you that I did lose my glasses and I've probably also had too much to drink in some people's opinions...

    I think you do a great job of keeping it together. You handle the good news and the bad news well and have fun. A lot of new folks don't understand the fun part.

    FYI - When it comes to varieties with markers - It either is or it isn't. No "close to".

    PS - Estes Park is amazing! I loved going there as a kid. I haven't been in years though :(

    Doesn't look like DDO to me but at my age it's too early in the morning for scotch. Maybe things will look better this evening.

    It is amazing up here. I haven't been here for about twenty years. My daughter is getting divorced so she really wanted to get away. She rented a condo for the week for us and the kiddos and man is it ever relaxing.

    As for food news and bad news there's absolutely nothing I can do to change the truth so no need to get upset when you hear it, whether it's good or bad. Now, if it was news that one of my kids or family members where hurt or almething... That's a whole new ball game.

    So with the markers being the exact same, they can't be off by any amount at all? Also, are there possibilities that some just have not been discovered or does it come down to it only being chances of of a variety of it is exactly the same as other varieties? I just want to understand more and by all means I am not arguing the fact that mine is not a DDO. It just looks odd on his face. What exactly would the cause be off that? Like his ear and in person (it's hard to capture on my camera), his earlobe is huge like a tumor or something and his hair on top is so weird. It looks like there's two different portraits of him, one that's looking directly profile and the other is a bit forward facing profile. Thanks for the explanation of this for me.

    I did send a few pics to Wexler prior to reading all these replies so I hope he doesn't get all like "Dear God this girl is blind!". LoL

    What good is a hobby if it's not fun?

    RR when you have a doubled bie. Not every part of the coin is doulbed. Mostly if the whole coins details looked doulbled its might be a over used die. I just doesn't happen
