Let me first start by saying I am an avid collector and have been for 40 yrs. I used to have the lunch lady cashier look thru the coins for me till she realized there was a profit and cut me off.  I like key coins (U.S.) and errors. Now about 7 years ago I bought a clear tube of 1955 p UNC red. When they arrived they were 53's the seller offered to make it right but the 53's were worth a little more so I kept them. Over the last week I bought several loupes 10mm to 60mm and have been looking at some of my "box coins" you know the commons you throw in a box and dont worry about the "nicks" BUT not the 1953's they were safe inside their tube. Well I popped the tube last night and to my surprise I found DDO's MS and RED. Are these coins recognized? I found some advertised that look like what I found that are proofs, were the business strikes discovered to have this error? I find lots of RPM's that go for 100's but cant find any DDO for sale. I can find info that they exist and PCGS wrote an artical that said 1953 was becoming hot because of the varieties. Well that about sums up my findings so now I hope that you will give me your thoughts feelings, and dealings with this coin.  THANKS AGAIN James[/QUOTE]
