1969 S Dbl Die Obv

Options

Has anyone ever come across a circulated 1969 s Dbl Die Obv? Not in great shape, but even a novice like me can see the Dbl Die, especially on the mint mark.

    Your coin isn’t a DDO. To see what they look like, take a look at the pictures in the upper right corner of the page linked below

    The mint mark on the true DDO isn’t doubled.

    You can’t have a DD on the mint mark, it was hand punched into the die.
    What you have is common Machine Doubling.

    That's the thing about doubled dies.

    The mintmark was added AFTER the die was produced, so any doubled mintmark would not be possible on a genuine doubled die coin.

    Your picture proves that you do NOT have a doubled die, just MDD.
