1950 D Wheat Cent DDO

Greetings to all fellow coin collectors, hope all are doing good. Needed some advice on this pocket change that I got today. It's a 1950 Wheat Cent, I didn't think of being anything special but when I got home and took a closer look there is doubling on the obverse. The number 9 of the year shows a doubling and also the mintmark. On the reverse, there is a doubling of the letter U and A in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

    All I see is a badly damaged wheat cent.

    Your cent shows extensive damage - PMD - and I see no evidence of doubled dies. Cheers, RickO

    I don't think so.

    “I believe in intuitions and inspirations. I sometimes feel that I am right. I do not know that I am. When two expeditions of scientists, financed by the Royal Academy, went forth to test my theory of relativity, I was convinced that their conclusions would tally with my hypothesis. I was not surprised when the eclipse of May 29, 1919, confirmed my intuitions. I would have been surprised if I had been wrong. I am enough of the artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.” Albert Einstein- quoted in Saturday Evening Post interview (1929)

    “Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.” For Einstein, honesty was fundamental. Attention to truth in small things reflected a person’s integrity on a larger scale.

    Nope, the features will flatten out with wear and that is all I see.

    I don't see anything other than enlarged nicks and scratches.

    I think that it should be stepped on more.

    That will really bring out the details. (no offense to the OP. Just being funny).
