<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1337773, member: 66"]From my reading of PCGS's information it looks like they would NOT recognize this under the variety submission category. Their link to the recognized variety listings does not include anything for Franklin halves and does not mention that they do Cherrypickers varieties. So if they were to recognize this as a DDR it would have to be under the mint errors category which would cost you an extra $50. So you had better be darn sure that it is a DDR before you send it in or you will just be throwing away $50. Even if it is a DDR I don't know if it would increase the value by $50.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Unless he is respected as a dealer in errors and varieties he may still not be able to tell you what you have. As many people will tell you a LOT of dealers know nothing about errors and/or how to recognize them. They may know how to recognize the well known very popular ones like the 1955 and 72 DDO cents, but can't tell MDD from a doubled die on any other coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
