Here is a picture of 1974-D DDO (Doubled Die Obverse). But this one is not silver.

Good info. Thanks :thumbsup:
I have found many double dies over the years, now I just throw them back unless the are in very good shape.
Trying to sell them out here is hard.

What I meant by what does it all mean. Is this.

The list you linked is sort of Greek to most people. Including me.

I'd have to take some sort of collage course to understand all of the descriptions. and there is no photo's or est. value.

What that link says to me is...

If i sat and spend time looking at every detail of every coin I come across I might find some sort of minor ERROR.

And than What is it worth? And how can I get what it is worth.

At least when edge searching. I can find what I'm looking for easily without a loop... Actually I can close my eyes and just listen for the silver. With the lights out.

All your list does for me is give me anxiety.....

But it is good info for those of us who can understand it.....

Thanks for the post.
