Anyone got a 1995 D Lincoln DDO?

ressikanflute · January 27, 2009 6:38AM

I bought a bag of 1995 Lincolns for $100 when the S+H was figured. Thought it was the 1995p, but not realizing it was a 1995d bag...

Hey.. so at least there is some hope.

Can anyone post an image of the 1995d DDO variety?

............didn't realize there was a denver example.

Oops...

They are worth a lot more than the 95-P. Very few exist, if you find any please post it.

See one here:

I knew that one existed but have never seen one in hand.

didn't know this one existed either. Guess I'm gonna have to dig through that bucket of Cents AGAIN! This happens everytime somebody brings up a new DDO/DDR. I reckon my best bet is just to look at every single coin from now on. But man that takes alot of time.

Guys, this coin has been around since shortly after the '95 P DDO was discovered. There's actually 3 for the date, with die#3 being the "big" one. To me, it's just as impressive as the Philadelphia doubled die. And a whole lot rarer. I own one in MS-66. I dont have great pics, but all hair detail from lincoln's beard north, including the eyelid, with most of the motto, date, AND Mintmark (as the mintmark was placed on all master dies I think from that year on) are nicely doubled. Check mine out: (HOPE THIS WORKS, AS PHOTOBUCKET IS ACTING SCREWY THESE LAST FEW DAYS!)

Easiest to spot looking at the word TRUST
Good luck

RichieURich · January 27, 2009 9:36AM

Yes, I believe mine is about an MS-63. I was very happy to be in the right place to buy one. Really rare variety.

........................hey richard, how 'bout a pic?

Hi,

I found a 1995-D doubled die going through a dish of pennies about a year ago. It was like the 3rd coin I looked at. I had not heard of the 1995-D DDO before that, but quickly found it on coppercoins. Since then I have been on the hunt for them. I've searched through over 100,000 pennies and nothing cept sore eyes. Here's a picture of the one I found. Obvious doubling on the motto, more on TRUST than IN. Some doubling on the mintmark. My coin photos are pretty bad, it just makes the letters look thick. Maybe I get the microscope out and try for better detail.

Give me a break, I'm new to Photoshop!.......

Looks remarkably like the D in "GOD"
My first try at adding a Mint Mark

RyGuy · January 27, 2009 9:33PM

Do you know how many 1995-Ds I've cast aside because I was only aware of the Philadelphia example?!?!?!

Ahhhhhhh...crap.

tahoe98 · January 28, 2009 12:20AM

.................you gotta examine each and EVERY coin in your change to be ahead of the game!
