[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 3301158, member: 13307"]Where [I]exactly[/I] are you seeing doubling? It doesn't really matter if you say the die markers match up - if there isn't really strong obverse doubling, it's not the DDO-001 - shown here at [URL='http://www.lincolncentresource.com/doubledies/1970Sddo1.html']linconcentresource[/URL]. The 1970 S DDO-001 is an extremely rare, extremely [I]strong[/I] doubled die. Even with your photos (which are blurry enough that they would hide minor doubling but not major doubling like the -001) I'm not seeing anything resembling a major and valuable DDO. The statement that you found "more than one" leads me to believe you didn't find even one. I think it's more likely that this coin (and the others you have) are [COLOR=#4d4dff]examples of the BDO-001 (Blurred Die Obverse)[/COLOR] that we see here oh, maybe twice a day? (I'm having fun and making a joke, not trying to be mean to you.) ALL THAT BEING SAID...if you did have a major doubled die, you'd need to be able to SHOW IT in your pictures. Someone could probably give you decent money for an unslabbed variety - especially a major one - but WE have to be able to see what YOU see, understand? Otherwise, it's just a shiny 1970 S Memorial Cent, worth 1c.[/QUOTE]
