<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1352417, member: 15199"]Welcome to the forum! The mechanism of die manufacture has changed since the well known 1955/55 and 1972/72 cent. Then the working die was pressed into the hub more than once, so the chance of slight misplacement after the first hub pressing and then a second pressing, produced a doubled die which then impressed on the coin. With the advent of the single squeeze method of producing dies, most doubled dies became more subdued and in the central part of the design. That is why Hobo mentioned that doubled dies in 2009 would not normally be near an edge, but in the central area. Read more at this reference. There is no premium for this coin.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.lincolncentresource.com/Featured/2009ddr.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.lincolncentresource.com/Featured/2009ddr.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.lincolncentresource.com/Featured/2009ddr.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
