Hello All. I just spotted this going through coins with my son last night. We think we found a 2009 Lincoln Penny with the DDR (on the thumb)? Not the rarest error, but we found it sifting through coins and it looks to be in real good shape. Whats the verdict? Thanks from the both of us.
Nice off center looks to be around %3 I've only found one so far in a roll not this good though.Funny what a coincidence mine is a 2018 as well.
Both are good finds... I believe the 2009 is a DDR, and the second coin is an off-center which was possibly struck through collar, but I cant tell. I just noticed the edge looks off.
@Eric the Red It appears to be WDDR-043, seven finger variety and a "Best of Variety" in Wexler's files. Nice find for pocket change. Others here may not see the additional partial finger but it is also between the thumb and index finger.
Thanks. I added the negative black and white photos to try to bring out the other partial finger by eliminating that satin finish glare.
Thanks again Tommy for identifying. Coin Talk and it's members never cease to amaze me with their knowledge
You are very welcome. I spent a lot of time on this particular series from Philly. Being such a bold doubled die made this one a bit easier I must admit.
