<p>[QUOTE="Kevin Mader, post: 3856758, member: 106826"]A couple things come to mind here for me. First, there are occasions where the experts (the folks who established the sites for DD attribution) have attributed a coin as a DDO/DDR only to change it later when new information becomes available. For example, wavy steps were considered a DDR on Lincoln cents for a bit before being backed out. The pictures of the attributed DDOs appear similar to your coin, and while they do look like chips that may be glorified, until the masters back off that point I'm inclined to agree with them. Admittedly though, I have hesitation on that point as do the others here. The more significant identifier for me is the appearance of a mark that looks like doubling west of the V of the Y. This type of doubling can be found on other cents of different years. So it's a combination of things. The bottoms of the T and Y, the mark to the west of the V of the Y, and similar attributions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
