Nice discovery! Do you guy's know if this seller in on the forum,if not,we need him to promote as well. I think that specific DD would even get our host's attention.Yes,there is a very,very slim chance that he will even get a third,of what he's asking.Good luck for him,though.

Joey, Wexler has the 2009-S proof wddr-006, that is listed for 10k on the bay, valued at $100 in pf65. It will be interesting to see where these actually fall when the CPG comes out. I'm still waiting on Whitman
publishing to respond to my inquiry about its publication date.
I'm still recovering from seeing Pitboss' latest find......lol
He purchased five boxes dated 4/23 right in the sweet time slot for about $10 a box. This is a test for everyone....what do you think he'll find inside those boxes? One guess per person please..... Pitboss cannot
Is it the " bootstrap" mentioned earlier? Pretty cool,because you said,NGC just allowed in the family! Whatever you find/found pitboss,a huge to ya buddy.

Haha...keep guessing! You may have to read earlier posts on this thread or go to the other "formative errors found" thread (another long one) to find out. Pitboss is probably itching to divulge the answer too!
I will give only one hint....this error is considered the best of the best by most. Ok, you're on your own....lol.....good luck
edited to add....Oh, wait...I just re-read 2009uhr's response....."something spooky that might be in your closets" is right on! a doubled thumbs up to you sir!
Just stopping by to say congrats on a great purchase and look forward to hearing what you find. I have 3 boxes and decided Like the hockey puck faze of selling sealed boxes thats where my last 3 will go, of course after the guide comes out.

Wanna work out a lobsters for coins deal??? lol I mean New England lobsters, with big claws, not the west coast kind without claws...the kind you remember, Pitboss!!!
Naw, I can get all the seafood I want from woods fish market in Plymouth. They will ship it to me next day air. Cant say the same for unopened boxes of 4/23. They are almost like hens teeth to come up with.

Congrat's PB! Apparently, you have been vigilant in your quest.
All I can say is it is borderline for this ossified species in terms of the timestamp. I have some blanks found a few minutes later...but would'a banged these too at that price!

Well I opened one box today. I only went thru the P mint. Are there any of these errors in the D mint rolls? My finding for one roll. 3ea. - WDDR-002 1ea. - WDDR-095
bsshg40...the "P" mint rolls are the ones to check for errors. Congrats on finding some 002's, the famous doubled thumbs which is now the official logo for the "believers" on this
thread. I am going to refer you to John Wexler's site that lists all of the 2009p errors. www.doubleddie.com has the complete listings of known errors. It will show the errors also for the proof mint sets and
the special mint sets with the copper cents. thanks for sharing your findings and good luck in your future hunt for the grail....
The Wexler site is a great source for identifying the various errors in the formative series. Also it's a good read for understanding what constitutes a doubled die vs. hub doubling, finding errors in other dates, etc.
Pitboss....you've lapped the field I think by now! If we did a total count by error I think only perhaps Papi or Dengarsen could challenge your totals. I thought I was doing competitively well for awhile but my hat is
off to you. Someday I hope to meet the "believers" but until then it sure is fun for me to be able to share our common goals and discoveries. It's because of Pitboss and Papi (where has he been?) especially but all
that have gotten into this particular niche and shared their thoughts, findings, enthusiasm, and camaraderie that I have been so inspired to collect these. Keep the faith believers!
Are any of you "believers" going to be at the Long Beach show? I'm tentatively planning on Thursday morning myself. I'd love to meet some of you. I will be bringing a couple of raw examples and bring them
to the PCGS table for a quick evaluation of grade (even though they won't slab them) . David Hall is going to do free evaluations! Pass the word, maybe we could have our first "formative club" meeting over some
coffee and doughnuts. Let me know so I can finalize my plans for that day!
Neither had I until I got these 2 bank boxes. Not only that but there were about 30 or 35 rolls with no errors in them at all. This was the way it was through both boxes. Most likely someone had opened the box scanned all the rolls and took out the rolls with the errors on the end and used the rest of that box to mix in with boxes that contained no errors. One box had 8 different errors and the other had only 4 as. Somebody did something to get these mixed up. What I usually find is errors tend to stay the same throughout a box.
I'd love to come to Long Beach, but a bit of a ways for a small timer from Alaska. One of these days...maybe when the ddr's take off i can afford...

Long Beach is a long way from Albuquerque so I will not be attending. I don't know how golden I am but I sure have spent plenty of gold buying these boxes. I don't even want to know!
Whats going on with all the pictures gone of the doubledies!
What pics are you referring to Pitboss. On page 17 of this thread I see Papi's best error pics still. Of course if you want the complete error list check here....d.d.'s
Looks like nobody else in our group will be in Long Beach but I'll try to represent by showing David Hall a few samples when he is doing free grading at the PCGS table. I'm sure he'll be bored just looking at
"old" coins, heh, so he'll see these shiny new pennies (I'll call them cents when I speak to him). He'll probably declare that from that day forward PCGS MUST begin to designate the errors on their slabs. Keep
looking and enjoying my fellow "believers"....we'll succeed someday!
If you click on the link I provided on my last post the pics are showing on Wexler's site...at least on my computer....just checked...seems ok.... try again.
Not sure what you are seeing, but looks good from my end.

Good, glad you got Wexler's site working again. Can't imagine what happened. Also, thanks for re-posting Papi's picks to this page. Kind of refreshing to look at these larger images and remind ourselves
what the Holy Grail of formative errors look like.

Hi guy's,I'm from Chicago,kinda too long away from home to attend the Long Beach show.Wish I can go and meet my fellow Believers.I'm anticipating the show in Illinois,in Shaumburg.This show is in April (long time to wait) Maybe,we will meet there?Until then,keep on pushing,hunting,posting and discovering "new" varieties in the Formative Years!
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.
Well, it's a snow day here in Mich and my kids got the day off.
Decided to play with the pennies a bit, put a bunch of 1's and 2's in flips. Found quite a few other odds and ends. I also found one of my old pics. One of only 2 coins that I ever lost money on. Hard to figure as IIRC a 67 initially went for $2,700 or so. I then snagged a 69 a few days later for at most $500 on bids, never thought I'd win the coin. Soon after, I tried a reflip, I think went for maybe $460. Let me puzzled and the only thing I could come up with was the plastic was to blame.
So here's that one:
and here's another shot of a small die crack..I've found a bunch of these and since I haven't been following along I'll assume it's nothing new...

Can you believe that NGC would designate a die crack sample (bootstrap) on their label but not the double dies???? C'mon!!!!
