    This coin may be possibly my first DDO. 1948 DDO-001, 1-0-IV. Opinions welcome. I see doubling in the motto for sure. I can also provide any high-resolution photos, if requested.

    I don't see what you are seeing. The D in God looks different.

    I'll take another photo. I'm still learning how to adjust the lighting on the new coin camera. More to come shortly.

    It has considerable wear, but I adjusted the lighting so you should be able to see doubling on the southend of "D" and "G" in the motto, and the northend of the "I and N" in the motto, too. Those are the prominent points I'm seeing so far. I still need to study it further, but I think it's a good match.

    I think a clear and well light photo showing the eye would be conclusive here.

    Edited: moved the rant into it's own thread.

    Try using full imag instead of thumbnails.
    Maybe something there.

    The wear on this coin makes it challenging. I'll take a full image with the coin camera next. Here are the images focusing on the "Eye" as requested.

    No use full image icon when uploading pics.
    You have 2 options full image or thumbnail. Hit full image. Full image below.

    Ok. I see what your talking about.
    That my friend unfortunately is die deterioration. Die deterioration doubling can be very deceptive. No added value. No collecter interest. Hope I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure I'm not.

    Really? Wow. And I thought I had posted a ddo by eliminating mechanical doubling. Maybe, someone else could confirm. @paddyman98 Thanks for your help, Steve!
