This one is offten confused with being machine doubling. Many dealers arent into varieties, and NC three cent pieces are not a series many collect....however a keen eye, and a series that many over look can produce a find of an triple ddo.... so when walking a show dont forget to look at other series that may not appeal to your collection, but can be of value in a trade or resell.
this short set of buffalos is a collection of ddo's,ddr's omm's,rpm's ,and of course the 37d 3 legger. The 35 ddr is a classic example of a variety buffalo nickel. My apologies for the image are not the quality I like to post, but at present I am limited .
Another shield 1866 ddo as well a rpd a two fer... on 1 coin variety.
Can we see a close-up of the doubling?
All you need to do is expand the image if you look at the cross of the order of Calatrava & the annulet youll notice the thickness of the annulet, and the chief azure lines just below the cross.

Here is one I picked several years ago that our hosts ended up grading MS64:

Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

I have found quite a few of the '46 DDR-001 at shops, shows, and on the internet too. The best I found was an MS64. They ain't so easy to find any more.
This is the second one I've found, the first being in 1986.
This is the only reason I look at Bicentennial quarters.

I've never cherried the '76-D DDO-001 and I've been looking for over 30 years. I had one, an AU55, in my set of Wash 25c d dies but I got that one by trading other d dies for it.

I have only ever seen one, it was in a dealer's case at a Bay State show, he wouldn't even put a price on it when I asked if it was for sale.

A value of $750 was put on the one I had for trade purposes. It brought considerably more than that when I sold my set of Wash 25c d dies. I had all the very tough copper-nickel doubled dies-the 1965 DDO-001, 1966 DDR-001, 1968-D DDR-001, 1968-S PR DDO-001 (no 1968-S DDR-001 tho), 1969-S PR DDO-001, 1970-D DDO-001 and DDO-002, 1971 DDR-001, and 1976-D DDO-001. The copper-nickel doubled dies for the series are generally much tougher than the silver doubled dies are with the exception of the 1943 Die #11. My Die #11 was an AU58.

This is one of my dream doubled dies-the 1936 DDO-003 (I believe it's actually a tripled die.) It's extremely rare. A VG sold for $15,000 not long ago. I got to examine what is probably the finest known specimen-a strong VF that was, unfortunately very harshly cleaned. The reverse was a moderately strong Class V doubled die, especially evident on "UNITED."
Right you are. I pretty much ignore the ones that require a microscope to see. My rule is if you can't see it with a 5X glass it isn't worth fooling with.

Collect raw morgans, walkers, mercs, SLQ, barber q. Looking at getting into earlier date coins pre 1900s.

How do I do that?
Place your thumb and index finger on the picture and spread them apart it will enlarge the image.

See the post above with a close up of the area.

Man, it looks very close to mine!!
1872 V-6 half dime; details somewhat obscured by dirt!
Here's a nicer closeup from the Crain collection, Newman Numismatic Portal.
No closeup needed. It's a very evident doubled die. No microscope needed on that one.
Check the reverse to see if it's the strong DDR I posted earlier. That can be seen even on a very low grade example.
Extra Pinkie finger.
The doubled die I discovered.

I'm looking as well. My heart will stop if I ever find one!!

Here’s a fun one I picked up at my LCS recently.
Excellent example!
What's a reengraved?
"That's why I wander and follow La Vie Dansante"
That was the 2x2 I bought it in, apparently the original collector was unfamiliar with the term “doubled die”
At least he didn't say: Reprint!!
I know Clint posted one this one may be a tad bit better grade.1872 h~10 ddo.

Brilliant examples gents!!
I like the ones you can pick even from a small photo. The 46 Walker DDR and 34-D Peace VAM 4 are my favorites.

Love these older slabs, love this doubling better!
Nice goin', Vetter!
