[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 2890227, member: 15199"]I do not believe so, and there is some experts who do not believe that Wexler's is one either. I might agree with a clear well lighted photo, but would stay on the no side at then moment. From CopperCoins.com forum in 2004 by member Coppercoins 1. The odd shape to the center of the 3 in the date is like that on ALL 1973 cents and is NOT master die doubling, it is simply a part of the design. That's just how the 3 was shaped that year. 2. That I know of there is NO master die doubling for any 1973 cent. Whatever it is you are seeing is not hub doubling, and is not master die doubling either. I can't see anything in the photos so I cannot help without seeing actual coins. 3. The reverse design change has nothing to do with the obverse other than so far there are no known examples of the 1972 style reverse on 1973 cents, and likewise no known examples of 1973 style reverse on 1974 cents. Simply stated, as far as anyone knows, the 1973 is a one year reverse type that has a slightly different design than 1972 or 1974 cents...and this had nothing to do with any master die doubling. edited to separate Coppercoins part _________________ Mine: Also if we compare with a 1963 similar DDO of mine [ATTACH=full]694352[/ATTACH] both the middle and bottom of the 3 are visible.[/QUOTE]
