EagleRJO Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 See the following links to look up doubled die coins with any die indicators, as well as the attached to help identify worthless machine doubling. https://doubleddie.com/ http://varietyvista.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandon Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Your photos should be of the entirety of each side of the coin, cropped to show less of the surface on which the coin sits, and without the reflections of the lights from your camera. (If these coins are in some sort of clear holder, please remove them from the holder before photographing them, or illuminate them with a lamp aimed from the side.) The only possible doubling I can see in the current photos are some shallow, shelf like images, beneath the top of "T" in the first photo and the bottom of "CENT" in the second photo, which would be strike (a.k.a. machine or mechanical) doubling. In addition to the previously provided sources, the following article also gives a good overview of the differences between die doubling and worthless strike doubling.

Hoghead515 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 What doubling I can see appears to be mechanical doubling to me. Need a little bit better picture of them to tell for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandon Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Your photos are inadequate for me to make a meaningful comparison, but they don't seem to show the "extra columns" near the centers of Memorial bays 2 and 3 as shown for 1991-D WDDR-002 on doubleddie.com on the following image, nor the similar doubling in bays 9 and 10. Does the coin have the tiny die gouge beneath the "A" in AMERICA that is a marker for this die? See https://www.doubleddie.com/352301.html. We'd like to help you, but we really need better photos and clearer questions than you've been asking in your posts.

powermad5000 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) You seem to be quite sure that the presented coin (s) is/are positively a DDR so I am not sure why the question then.
