Is this Lincoln a DDO?

Trust looks doubled to me but I don't have magnification.

I think I see what you see. It looks properly doubled to me. I don't know if there is a website for attributions for pennies, but I think that is definitely doubled. Nice find!

 

I think the heavy die polish on the obverse wiped out the letters in the legend. Not a doubled die but an interesting coin nonetheless.

 

Probably die deterioration doubling.

 

I see either an over polished die or laser beams from outer space. Other than that it looks like a nice older cent anyone would like to have.

 

I bought a few rolls on eBay. Now if I just had better magnification.

 

Try matching it to one of the known DDOs, which can be found with high quality images here: http://varietyvista.com/01b LC Doubled Dies Vol 2/DDO 1959.htm

Based on your pictures, however, I doubt it.

 

To me that looks like it took a hit.

Not a Doubled Die IMHO

 

I do not think so either. The angles is hard to tell , but look at TRUST in the top photo , notice how the top of each " T" has double cross bar, the extra top one is wider than the real cross bar. This is indicative that a "smearing" action has occurred, whether a hit, deterioration, or other mechanical movement it is not a true DD or it would be the same width. IMO. Jim
