Unfortunately it is not the DDR that you think it is, and I am sure that you are not going to like hearing that, but it's not. I can see clearly enough in your pics of the reverse to be able to tell. If there is anything especially from the last pic posted of the word "United", it is machine doubling. Machine doubling is very common and not worth any kind of a premium although it can be interesting. New people to collecting confuse it all the time with "real" doubling.
That is not a doubled die. Once again-look at the link I posted. Does it look like the image from Variety Vista? No? Then it ain't what you think it is. The 1982 DDR-001 is not a variety you need a microscope to see.
I guess there's no sense arguing with this guy. I think we're being spoofed anyhow. Seems like this type of thing is happening more and more frequently of late. I know I'm more than happy to help people who are serious but I fear that's not the case here. Maybe if we just ignore these people they will go away.
Hold on.. bare with me.. I have another pic
Now you are seeing my issue that I stated in my post..
About not being able to get the correct pic the the viewer..
Bc im a Newby
You can take all the pics you want, it is not just going to magically appear as the real DDR. The pics you have taken of the reverse are good enough, and show what is needed for a proper ID.
You see..
There it is.
I tell ppl I need help..
I'm being completely honest about what I found..
And humble that I need help.
I did my homework amd matched all markers..
Then I come here to get help..
And ppl think I'm full of crap.. but I'm not I pretty much need to know which scope to buyand talk about best lighting and scoping techniques..
Why could you not ask the right question from the start instead of just saying that I need help??? After 50+ posts you finally ask a question relevant to your problem, like what is the best scope to buy and how do I light the coin I am trying to get pics of.
Oh my word...
Why do ppl act this way??
You are aware that I'm using a cell phone with a lens and he used high end scope with correct lighting..
Of course our pics won't be identical..
But what i see does match.

Which snap would make you a believer?
I will take the time to try my best to get it right..
None, because the pics you have posted on the reverse are good enough to make a positive ID. How many years of experience in coins and varieties do you need someone to have to get you to understand that the coin you have is not a DDR?
Ok,
That took way too long..
I have your smoking gun.. well that's if your actually willing to belive me..
Ppl can deny any thing now a days..
Give me a sec and I will upload it..
And reminder my scope skills sick so give a little slack pls
I'm not lying about what the lincion cent is..
Also I'm not lying about how i need help to better scope this cent so i do no injustice..
Yes I'm new, yes my scope sucks, yes
my Skills suck amd i need help..
Sooo who is willing to help?

There are many people here that are willing to help, but so far you have listened to none of them.
Morgan..
They are telling me its not it.
I'm trying to explain it is and I need help to better show it..
I did my home work and just need help on what is the better scope to buy, lighting and scope techniques.. bc honestly if you don't have that, then you can make any Double die look like it's not one.
I'm willing to take a snap of any marker of your choosing to prove it is it..
All of them are there bc I studied the heck out of this coin before posting it..
I just don't want to display this with my current setup and lack of know how..

Your pics are not the problem. You just plain don't listen and that is your entire problem.
You said yourself that you are new, I guess that trumps what ever all the people here with decades of experience say.
Are they not denying its what I'm claiming..
See this is the issue's. I make a discovery.
I do my homework and spend alot of time matching die marks..I make a post and honestly not at the viewer fault, they claim PMD Or DDD.. which I know it's not bc like I said I do my work..
I know exactly what the issue is and I'm asking for help with it..
The post are not a question if this is the coin and its not a post that I want arguments over.. I chose this coin bc of its unique pairing with another coin..
That i can match up so I don't have to go threw all this pmd/DDD stuff..
So I'm gonna continue to show Die mark and polish mark and letter doubling that matches to the point you guys just kick me bc I'm proving ppl wrong.. yet again it is not thier fault they are wrong..
It's mine bc I need help in displaying a correct image..
It took me a super long time to get this image I'm about to post.. you will see the u os spot on along with the die Scracth between the I and N.. and it taking this long is exactly why I want help..
I really and truly would appreciate help bc this is not the only coin I have that is sinficant..
As just becoming a member to this grand establishment today and following this saga of “newbie in denial” vs well ,... everyone else , I only have one thing relevant to say 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪. Since cussing isn’t allowed , I figured crazy face might be appropriate. You folks are to be commended with such restraint . If I’m kicked out , it would be for losing my cool and the cussing rule possibly violated . Entertaining for sure . Anyway , hi guys .
I feel like pulling out my hair lmbo..
If I'm kicked out bc I run into the same issue..
Look im the guy that walks into a gas station and buys a $10 Scracth ticket and then walks out with 10K..
Then I'm also the guy that loses the ticket..
You see.. I seriously found the coins but can't display them..
And I'm being absolutely honest bc I've been thru it 4 times..
At some point you guys will kick me bc I will get frustrated bc nobody will give me a little guidance.. and yall will think im just a nut job..
But I'm telling you the God honest truth about what I found and that I seriously need help..
Pretty sure I still have the screen shots.
A guy took a shield cent, with his scope he turned into pmd and back into a double die..
My point is, when scoping I know it's all about the angle of light direction and position of scope..
What I just can't figure out it how it's done..
Maybe bc of my low end scope.. idk
Right.. jumped right in the deep end..
I just know exactly where this could go and im really just trying to prevent it..
To all I I'm sorry if I'm coming across disrespectful or rude or how ever I may have made you feel..
That is not my intention..
Comments
And yeah
The zinic rot got it a bit 😪
Amd now look
See..
I need help to understand why I take different pics..
Unfortunately it is not the DDR that you think it is, and I am sure that you are not going to like hearing that, but it's not. I can see clearly enough in your pics of the reverse to be able to tell.

As we all suspected, NOT the DDR. You'll know one when you see it. You can learn a lot here, but only if you're willing.
How is that not doubled..
I even zoom in this pic for you
That's 100% clear splitting of the letter U and N..
And here we go down the same fox hole..
This sucks
Yes it is, but it is machine doubling. Go back and read my last post again.
It is also not in the right place for the DDR you you are claiming it to be.
I guess there's no sense arguing with this guy. I think we're being spoofed anyhow. Seems like this type of thing is happening more and more frequently of late. I know I'm more than happy to help people who are serious but I fear that's not the case here. Maybe if we just ignore these people they will go away.
There is also huge doubling on "E Pluribus Unum" on the real deal. Yours does not have that either.
Hold on.. bare with me.. I have another pic
Now you are seeing my issue that I stated in my post..
About not being able to get the correct pic the the viewer..
Bc im a Newby
It's obvious that others have been trying to educate you on other forums but that you have been defiant.
Doubled? Yes. Doubled Die? No. It's machine doubling.
You can take all the pics you want, it is not just going to magically appear as the real DDR. The pics you have taken of the reverse are good enough, and show what is needed for a proper ID.

And ppl think I'm full of crap.. but I'm not I pretty much need to know which scope to buyand talk about best lighting and scoping techniques..
And now I'm probably gonna get kicked..
Smh man..
Why can't yall just help and you seriously will see I'm not playing games...
If you think that the coins in the above two pictures are identical then I just don't know what to say.
Your coin is missing the doubling. ( in red )
Why could you not ask the right question from the start instead of just saying that I need help??? After 50+ posts you finally ask a question relevant to your problem, like what is the best scope to buy and how do I light the coin I am trying to get pics of.

Which snap would make you a believer?
I will take the time to try my best to get it right..
Your N looks nothing like the DDR.
Sorry, no cigar.
Did this dude just post 36 times? Making a fool of himself in each of the 36? Asking for a friend.
None, because the pics you have posted on the reverse are good enough to make a positive ID. How many years of experience in coins and varieties do you need someone to have to get you to understand that the coin you have is not a DDR?
Seems like you are creating your own drama here.

Cell phone pic vs high end scope..
You have to be joking..
Your pics are not the problem. You just plain don't listen and that is your entire problem.

@stack888 Welcome to the forum!
Great first post! 
Right.. jumped right in the deep end..
I just know exactly where this could go and im really just trying to prevent it..
To all I I'm sorry if I'm coming across disrespectful or rude or how ever I may have made you feel..
That is not my intention..
As mentioned your photos are good enough for us to see your coin.
"I will get frustrated bc nobody will give me a little guidance.."
You have been given guidance but you don't seem to want to acknowledge it.
You claim to want help & guidance but it seems you came to tell us what you know you have and enlighten us.
