1971-S Jefferson Proof DDO..with a twist on the reverse! Lots of little pics!

peg

Just cracked this Jeff out of a proof set....It's pretty much hazed over but it looks to be a cam or dcam.

Closest I can come to indentifing what DDO it might be is this from Coneca...

Light spread on LIBERTY, star, date, designer's initials, and IN GOD WE TRUST

Any premium?....Should I submit it to ANACS?....What would something like this be worth?

Any comments and/or feedback is appreciated!
















The reverse has something like a struck through or damaged/faulty planchet on the right of the stairs...I have no clue!




Little crappy pics of the obverse and reverse.




The mintmark....not sure if this is normal. (scratch is on the flip)



For those that may ask...The pics were taken with an Intel QX3 scope...great little toy!

It is odd to find a proof like that.I'd say if it were slabbed it might bring a small premium.

Does that bring a premium? I thought most proofs were struck at leat 2 times.

I believe you are correct,but most show no doubling.

Hi Peg- It looks like that coin shows strike doubling NOT hub doubling. The clincher is that the MM shows the same strike doubling. Look real close to see if there are any split serifs on the lettering, the pics appear to show only strike doubling- Hope I'm wrong.

I agree with JRocco - looks like strike (machine) doubling to me as well.

May also explain the reverse damage as well.

I have seen alot of strike doubling on proofs from about 1969 to 1971, especially the cents, nickels and quarters.

Thanks for all your input!

I learned a valuble lesson here today!

I will start putting question marks in my titles and I'll stay away from the three finger lids.

It is not hub doubling, it is machine doubling, which is very common on proofs from the late 60s and early 70s. It is not worth a premium either.
