<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DieVarietyNews, post: 1023028, member: 27410&quot;]I came across this 1985-D cent today while searching circulated rolls.&nbsp; It&nbsp; is a new listing for my files now assigned as 1985-D 1c CDDR-001.&nbsp; I&nbsp; emailed John Wexler and he informed me that he didn&#039;t have any DDR listings for the 1985-D cents. </p><p><br /></p><p>Attached are a few photos. Distinct separation and notching are readily visible on the &quot;FG&quot; designer&#039;s initials. Very nice doubling continues on the letters of AMERICA. Though not shown, the spread is also visible on STATES, EPU, right half of the building, and&nbsp; the word CENT. The left half of the reverse exhibits some extra thickness to the&nbsp; lettering.</p><p><br /></p><p>Appears to be a Class II + VIII from a distorted spread&nbsp; towards the center of the die combined with the doubling more pronounced&nbsp; on the right half of the coin from a tilted die or hub. I would say the reverse is probably&nbsp; between a MDS-LDS specimen leaning more to the latter. Most likely a BU full red early die state&nbsp; example will probably show the doubling even much more prominent.</p><p><br /></p><p>The&nbsp; only die marker I could find is a thin die scratch extending between&nbsp; the letters &quot;TY&quot; of LIBERTY. No die markers were detected on the reverse.&nbsp; Also attached is a photo that provides the mint mark position with&nbsp; relationship to the date that may help in attributing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Being a Denver mint issue variety searchers west of the Mississippi certainly have something else to be on the hunt for.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck in your searching endeavors.</p><p><br /></p><p>Billy</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]99900.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]99901.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]99902.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]99903.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
