1939 DDR-My Last Purchase Of 2019

This Doubled Die along with several others including the 1955 that Jim posted are Mint errors. They fall under the variety category.

A true doubled die is a variety in that it is created during the die making process. As a result, the doubling will appear on every coin struck from that die. In the past, doubled die errors were often much more dramatic due to the process in which dies were created. This was taken from a 2017 article by NGC.

Errors are unique. The 1955 doubled die met all the criteria required of a circulating coin and were issued by the mint even though they were defective.
You can call these anything you want, but they are bot errors.
Collectors call cents pennies, but it doesn't make them pennies.

 

Collectors call toning damaged, but it doesn't make them damaged.

 

I have two of them. Yours is worn but very nice. That guy who's searching 500 cases of nickels. Really found a beauty. Ask to see his. It's the bomb

 

Hey. All that doubling is there. They look great in hand. Don't they?

 

Us real roll hunter aren't like those 50 cent guys rim searchers. We check for everything for what these cointalkers are are teaching us to look for. Most of us are novice. It's just a great felling to just find something different. Can't you tell how excited most searcher get when they feel they found something. I've come along way since joining cointalk. It's been wonderful.

 

But if your from Scotland. Have you even driven on the other side of the road. Thats a habit thats hard to change even after a number of years. Try holding your fork different. Even coin rollers say pennies. Americans can't have it both ways

 

What's a 50 cent guy rim searcher? Oh, you mean silver. Never mind!

Yes, feelings are a big part of the problem with many folks and their error searching. Unfortunately, feeling aren't facts.

 

What the hell does second reply mean. What problem. Finding a interesting coin is a problem. What Are you just trying to say

 

Forget it.

 

@Islander80-83.have a nice nite

 

Yes they do. Amazing they still show the Doubled Die so well after all the circulation.
