I like this Cent. Interesting find and it is heavier than normal. I don't know what could of caused the extra column look though. Kind of looks like a clash but in the wrong place and the wrong side of the Cent. Confusing.
Check your coin for DDO-005 . 1982 1¢ WDDO-005 “Best Of” Variety Description: A spread towards the NE shows on LIBERTY, IN GOD, the date, the ear, the hair details behind the ear, and some of the folds in the vest. Die Markers: Obverse: Large Date Copper. A die scratch runs NW/SE to the left of the I of IN. A die scratch runs NE from the upper right 2 in the date to the rim. A long SSW/NNE die scratch can be found under the I in LIBERTY. Reverse: None noted. Submitted By: Matt Walton Cross References: None known
Hi everyone,looking at this cent after reading the replys,looks like a die scratch coming off earlobe going NW while looking at the die scratch, I think I discovered a double ear.When I have more time I will hunt for more die scratchs. Will post pictures later. Thanks, McCann
I looked at the coin and from what I see it has everything the WDDO-005 has and maybe more.Here are some new pictures.Looks like Major errors on Pres. Lincolns head.Could this be a new verity Obverse and Reverse Errors? Thank You, McCann
I own a DDO-005 and the Double ear is pretty cool looking . A long with the rest of the doubling to, of course .. I had a thread on it too . https://www.cointalk.com/threads/large-date-1982-copper-lincoln-cent-wexler-ddo-005.296971/
That is a nice picture. Was it taken with a USB microscope? If so what's the model and magnification power setting?What's your thoughts on my 1982? Thanks McCann
On the reverse ONE just above the E look N slightly up.There are the columns (where their not supposed to be ) I believe I see President Lincoln sitting in his Memorial Chair.On this thread the shadowed picture,you may be able to make it out. If not see my other thread.I will try to take a better picture of that.Also what's going on E of Lincolns ear,to me it looks like a doulble of some sort.So much to look at here. McCann
Here's what I use, but I wouldn't get this one . It's only a 2MP and I would get a 5MP . https://plugable.com/products/usb2-micro-250x/
Found this in my change yesterday . Here's what my setup looks like, with a image too . It's wexler DDR #3 . Year 1994 .
Wow, really nice quality.I have to improve my setup. Your Cent shows it pays to look at Newer coins.Will you send it for a grade?
I have two different piles . This one will go in the " Not A CherryPicker coin " . The other pill are all cherrypicker coins and those I will grade .
