I believe I have found my first double die.

Looks like it. Congrats, you're off and running!

Your pictures are very good, and I would say that is not a doubled die.....Good luck in your search. Cheers, RickO

it kinda looks like it but there aren't any listed on VV. you may check wile's site and/or the coneca forum.

usually the modern coins for zlincs have doubling visible on the date, which does not appear to. fwiw

Try Wexler's Die Varieties.
They list die markers for the 2011 DDO cent.
Best of luck and welcome aboard.

Wexler has it as WDDO-005, it’s also recognized by coppercoins, coneca and Crawford. I have circled the die gouges that can be seen in the pics next to the D in god, E in we and the one above the 0 in the date. The others are harder to see from my pics.

I don't believe it's a doubled die but even if it was it wouldn't be a "double" die. It would be a "doubled" die.

I admit that in my excitement I have misspelled the word, but I will ask that you refrain from commenting on my post if you can’t be more polite. Thanks

Will do. However, I didn't think I was being rude.

Are you saying the doubled die given to this type isn’t a doubled die or are you saying that mine isn’t the DDO?

Then I must apologize, I took it that way due to the fact that you quoted the words. Thanks for your opinion on this post, new single squeeze doubled dies are debatable. Some say they are and others say they aren’t, I find them just as beautiful as the older doubled dies.

Nearly all of the modern doubled dies are classified as Class IV (offset hub doubling) + VIII (tilted hub doubling) doubled dies. Class IV doubled dies that only show doubling at or near the center of the coin have been around for a long time, tho. A good explanation of the different Classes of doubled dies can be found here-https://doubleddie.com/

I believe they are legitimate doubled dies. Here's a good example. Image courtesy of Variety Vista.

@koynekwest that is one of the best examples, most people agree on, and one I’m still on the look out for.

Variety Vista http://www.varietyvista.com/ is just about the best site I've found for doubled die attribution or for just seeing what's out there.

Yeah the link leads you to the DDO I’m talking about. The date on my coin is damaged so it’s hard to see the spreads, but all other thicknesses and die marks are there.
