Message:: [QUOTE="kanga, post: 417784, member: 9270"]Nope, no more than partial collars, capped dies, etc.It's a Mint produced error.It's just that mechanical doubling is generally considered to render a coin worth less than a properly struck coin. Now for the coin itself. PCI is/was a reasonably conscientious TPG, and they did their part correctly, at least with regards to the doubling. No fault on their part. But the seller ... well. "The specimen is an early version of the very famous DDO variety." WRONG!!!(And I tend to believe he knows that.) "On the slab it has been specified as a "Doubled Strike" which is actually twice as rare as the full DDO variety." Show me where this is documented. "Also, the coin is about 60 times as rare as the 1955 DDO Variety." Again, show me where this is documented.In fact logic shows that according to these numbers a "full DDO variety" is 30 times rarer than the "1955 DDO Variety." And no way you can get a good look at that coin with those images. I better quickly sell my 1955 DDO while the price is high, and buy a 1970-S DDO while the price is low.Hope no one else finds out about this. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
