8 cents for a DDO!!!!

 

Great find

 

Sweet!

Doing a happy dance for you!

 

Ya I pick alot of coins and it's crazy what go's in the junk bowl. This is a 1960 D/D Sm over Lg Date DDO. I picked maybe 25 of this type of coin in the pass 3 years. I think it's a $200 coin in a holder.Thanks for looking.

 

Question, It looks like a small date over large, but I don't see where it's a D/D. Is it not an example of a die that was small over large, with the mintmark added after?

 

Great Picture

That is the best picture I have seen of this type of coin. Great find.

 

kasia
at the edge of the 9 you can see the ghost of the second D

 

Here is a pic of the mint mark. I think it's called that because the large was stamped 1st then the small after.

 

What do you mean by junk bowl? At your local coin shop?

 

Wow! Thanks for the extra pic. This is a great way to learn from people who find coins like this!

 

I guess not.

 

Nice

 

Lol poor Steve.

 

Why not just answer the question? I notice all of the 'regulars' are not answering me anymore. I must be "boycotted" for some reason. Guess it was from when I jumped on the "new user" who asked about the error coin that was obvious PMD......along with the previous 15 "new users" who were doing the same thing. I notice it's not happening much now. Wonder why.

 

It's the bargain bowl Steve. The place where the dealer throws all of his worthless junk......and many times a place to pickup a terrific bargain. Sometimes called the 'junk bin'.

 

Steve. I think from a coin shop or a bourse table at a show.

 

Ok, thanks.

 

Amazing. I am very happy for you and I would like to kill you <<grin>>. Why can't I ever find rockstars like that? Congrats!

 

I'm Sorry Steve I could not log in. I kept trying to reset my password and just found that i had cointalk on my block list. But yes it was from a B/M and yes the junk bin. I look there some time to see if I can cherry pick it.
