<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 2969620, member: 66&quot;]One other reason is the size of the dies.&nbsp; The major DDO cent have a displacement between the two hubbings of 2 degrees or less.&nbsp; Think about the image separation on the 69 S cent or the 1972 DDO die 1 cent.&nbsp; That same amount of displacement, 2 degrees, on say a quarter die would result in the letters around the rim being offset by close to their full width.&nbsp; That is going to JUMP out at anyone one inspecting the dies.&nbsp; So it is just much easier to detect and condemn a DDO die on a larger denomination except for the dime.&nbsp; Also there is just more interest in collecting cents than the other denominations so errors are more likely to be listed for cents in general works like the Redbook than on other denominations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
