I'm annoyed that PCGS does not photo archive every coin. It doesn't have to be a 60MP Trueview, but just something to insure your label is not just a copy. If I was going to buy a high price peace it would have to be in the Trueview registry and as for this... https://www.greatcollections.com/Coin/219273/1982-S-Washington-Quarter-DDO-FS-101-PCGS-Proof-69-DCAM How can you claim a DDO without showing us!!! So unprofessional!!!!
Only 1969-S Lincoln cents. That reminds me, I haven't seen a new 1969-S DDO Lincoln Cent thread in a while.
So it's not just me? Because I have trouble seeing doubling most of the time and when I do it's usually MD, or the very obvious types. The devices on that quarter look just the same as any other, to me.
Doubling is a long term learning thing. To make it more fun the minting process has changed over the years and so have the types of doubling.
I can live without a 1969-S doubled die. I almost had one sold when I was dealer. I had a guy who gave me a want list, and I landed one for him within two weeks. I knew who had what in those days. He ignored my email when I told him I had one. When I asked him later, he said he could not believe I had found one in under two weeks.
From that, it sounds like all of them have doubled devices. Therefore it's nothing unusual. I guess the doubled die has to be from a working die to qualify.
I’m thinking it is was considered an item meriting called a “cherrypick”, but is not now and won’t be included as such in their next edition. I looked it up at Wexler and NGC. BTW, a PF70 1982-S is listed valued at NGC for $100.00…if they are all produced from a MDO die, why the huge price disparity?…Spark
No, I think he thought that the coin was an "impossible rarity" that would never become available or would takes to locate. It isn't. Like most rarities, money and a little patience will yield results.
