Have I just found myself a 1969-S DDO?

The doubling on this 1969-S Lincoln Memorial Cents as shown in the pictures attached below is for most visible to the naked eye. Is any one of them a doubled die?

But New Members haven't seen them and it is easier to ask than to search.

 

Does it look like this?

 

Yeah, I guess that's why the world is going downhill like it is. Nobody wants to do anything for themselves, any more.

Although sometimes they are really unsure as to what to do. Teaching the same lesson over and over got to be a real drag until I realized it wasn't over and over to the students. Stage actors kind of have the same thing going on...imagine a play that runs 5 years!!!

 

Where did you hear about the 1969-S doubled die?

 

Likewise, if a musician writes a hit, they spend the rest of their life performing that same song over and over.

 

Are the dies misaligned because they rotated on themselves, or because they shifted and became offset as a result ( off-center) ?

 

Sorry, we get so enchanted with ourselves we don't always answer questions. Doubling can occur when the die is made (DD) and these are the good ones, look up a pic on a 1955 DD Lincoln cent. When the die moves while striking you can get a machine doubling (MD) coin. As the die wears, crumbling or wear around the letters can give rise to die deterioration doubling (DDD). The DD is the one worth bucks and none of yours are that.

 

Perhaps you should consider providing an example.

 

Be that as it may, if you were teaching grammar instead of music, there would be room for a few classes.

It would behoove you to post jpegs instead.

 

What do you mean? Like on the streets or something?

 

I apologize about that. Are you able to see what I have sent you at all?

 

It's okay...

I can see the photos (jpegs) you posted in the OP, but the last two are pdf. No offense, but I won't open such files from unknown sources.

 

Did you compare your coin to the pic in post #4? If you think it looks like that, you may have something. If not, then your coin is worth face value. What do you think?

 

What makes you think that what you see on google is real?
What makes you think that that new members are automatically seeking answers when asking you a question, as opposed to researching answers?
