He has sold 2 sets of 5 today and no more are currently listed. The big 3 , WDDR 001,002, and 006 are getting very hard to come by now. I don't care what naysayers are saying, these are going to be good coins to own. If people don't like them then don't read the threads about them. >>
I think he is done. sdhepworth has an auction running now for 1. It is up to $7 he had 2 previously sold for around $4 I asked him if he had any more and he said he had 25 of them, I offered him $6 a piece and he said no. (smart)

He has 5 more on there. I am out of money at this point. Fastest one gets them.
Pitboss, or anyone else here who has been cataloguing the mint box dates, times, and batch numbers and which varieties were found in each. Just purchased two boxes dated 4/27 batch 9774 time 12:26 and am curious to know what, if any, varieties I should be looking for. Thanks
....and in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make....
I have only discovered WDDR 001 and WDDR 002's in 4/27 boxes to my recollection. I have not kept records of what I have found as I am not going through any more boxes. I have only saved 001.002. and 006 and have just ignored the rest.
I am holding mine and will wait it out.. I sold plenty when they were bringing decent money so I am not to deep in them. I have alot of the other than key dates in bank boxes also. I have one box that produces 5-6 different in each roll. Kinda neat box.
<< <i>ANACS's has made alot of money off the 2009 DDO and DDR's in grading and attribution fees i'm shocked PCGS doesn't want in on this market? >>
Not me.
PCGS is a grading company not an attribution company. Their primary focus is on grading coins and really aren't in the business of cataloguing every variety that either comes out or gets found.
Unique or historic coins yes, commonly available stuff, I'm thinking not.
When was the last time someone got excited about a Minnesota Extra Tree?
Is anybody even "looking" for them anymore?
Answers to both questions will give you insight on the Lincoln DDR's.
I'm certainly not trying to curb some folk's enthusiasm, just trying to point out the obvious.
I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
Is anybody picking up some of those WDDR 006's that " heny43" is offering for sale on ebay (5 coins for $45) besides me. well i have been watching his sales (need to get a job out of money) and your right all his sets now seem to be gone. still have some unopened boxes and i am thinking will send a few in to anacs this next week and keep the rest for later just in case pcgs does. nobody can predict what the future will hold for these and i think once all those sell out on ebay and it seems like the majority of the rest is held by people on this board. Now if all of us hold out till there are no more for sale on ebay surely we will have the control over prices........PLUS I did have a blast finding these thks to all of you.....

What; because of the similar number of DDRs attributed, you're completely fixated on the Trees?
First of all we're talking quarters, and pennies. And second; a six fingered ABE is WAY more interesting than an extra tree branch.
Apples and Oranges
Keep poo-pooing Lee >>
I respect Lee's opinion , except this one. He is completely missing the boat in comparing WDDR-006 to any modern error. The huge difference being that this error feature does not resemble any intended feature of the reverse. The error is a very large, clearly identifiable skeleton finger that doesn't look like a normal finger , nor a thumb, nor a leaf, nor a blob, nor a doubling. It is not a remnant, nor an overlay of an existing object. It clearly does not belong on the coin, yet this exclusive characteristic is prominently displayed thereon.
Lee, you are wise man and I truly do like reading what you have to say as you do make valid points. Plus we both like Ike, so thats a good thing!
BUT....I disagree strongly with the Minnesota Extra Tree comparison. The MN state quarter varieties are completely diffferent. One we are talking about a state quarter that has it's moment of glory, when released and primarily for those in MN. Hey, I am from Oregon, I like my Oregon quarter. There is nothing about the MN state quarter design to draw much interest IMHO.
Yet, take the FY Lincoln. As we all know there are millions of Lincoln collectors. The new designs were to celebrate Abraham Lincoln's 200th birthday and the Lincoln Cents 100 birthday. That had broad and long-term appeal, just for what the coin is.
More importantly, let's look at the DDRs. Yes, both coins have many versions. However, we are talking about a little tiny tree or portion of a tree that is doubled. It is literally a speck on most of those varieties. Trees are all over that coin, intentionally. It is really hard to tell when there is an unintential tree or branch in those DDRs.
With the FY DDRs, they have their blips too, but 3-12 of them are significant. A finger of Abraham Lincoln is doubled. One of them happens to look dead on like a skeleton's finger. Despite what many say, you can see them easily with a loupe, or with your naked eye. You do not need to hunt around the forest for an extra tree.
I will give you 1.5 face and promises to spend them all as soon as I can find a business that will take that many pennies let alone a collector. I am sorry if I am stepping on your deal ambro.

Might I suggest that you read Billy Crawford's DVM Suplemental Issue #4 instead of buying into the $9.00 per coin hype. He presents a very good overlay depicting the origin of this variety. I'm sure it will address those "It clearly does not belong on the coin" statements.
If you don't have a copy, PM me your email and I'll send what I have downloaded.

well i am just a newbie who missed out on the 2008 silver eagles, got lucky with the wisconsin, missed the minnesota, got the lincoln pennies a few of each and starting a collection of type b quarters, now whats the difference in a U on the back of the eagles, a leaf on the quarters, an extra tree or and extra finger ? some type b sellers want 200 or more dollars for a MS 65 b type, to me there all error coins. So what if the interests isn't there right now, how long have the type b quarters been around, and i a newbie am just starting a collection, there will always be another generation of people who get interested in one or more series. again time will tell and from reading most of those who own these there not in a hurry to unload them.

The naysayers reasoning is void of content. The only valid counter argument would be to point to a similar error and show it has failed to appreciate. Try as they might, they cannot do this. Their examples consist of comparing boring partial extra leaves, trees, and mundane doubling of features. I await a photo of a unique, interesting error (that stands on it's own, with no relation to any other coin feature) comparable to the skeleton finger.
It seems that unless there are only 5 known, and they're worth $100,000, then they're not worth talking about.
At least that's what I get from the jist of their comments. >>
And also it seems to me that a few believe that modern DDRs take away from the classic DDRs. How many comparisons have been made to the 2009 FY errors to the 1955 DDR? Quite a few and I just do not see the point. The 1955 and others like the 1972 are classics and truly hold their own. These modern DDRs are just what they are, modern. It is what the Mint is giving us to collect these days. The unique design of the FY with Abe's finger in the central location of the die makes these modern DDRs even more interesting because it was a perfect storm of sorts: a design that lends itself to a dramatic error, problems with the dies, and poor workmanship at the Mint. That makes these 2009 FY special. The 2010 shield design is plain and dramatic DDRs will be highly unlikely and few and far between. So going forward at least as far as we can see in the future right now, they made a bang with the 2009 FY and gave us a lot to collect.
I agree with you guys completely. I am just so sick of these guys that I will not even comment on what they are saying and hopefully we can have a decent discussion as these coins are significant. Just do not even reply to them and hopefully they will go away and play in their own sandbox.

There's always the Original BOX DATES AND NUMBER FOUND thread where Billy and I kinda get into it because I was questioning the importance of some of these and he revokes my submission priviledges to him.
There's This one where I announced that I'd found a Proof DDR in one of the Silver Proof Sets. Everybody was concentrating on the LP2 boxes so I figured what the heck. There had to be a proof version.
And there's this one where I state I found two Proof DDR's (which BTW, are at only 4 different varieties found. )
Your kinda right. The varieties and finding them is really cool and contrary to what folks may think, I have nothing against them at all. It's the pumping that I have an issue with since there are plenty of these to go around. IMO, if folks can sell them 5 at a time, that's gotta say something.
Remember this one?
It's kinda cool.
I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
you all keeping good records of the date/box/production run? I have a small notebook with all the dates on boxes, times, production codes, and varieties and quantities found. I have found that after averaging the #'s out, every box has about the same % of errors per type per mint box.
I have enough of these that if they do become valuable, I will not care if what I am selling them for now is only a fraction of the price.

I await a photo of a unique, interesting error (that stands on it's own, with no relation to any other coin feature) comparable to the skeleton finger.
It seems that unless there are only 5 known, and they're worth $100,000, then they're not worth talking about.
At least that's what I get from the jist of their comments.

And also it seems to me that a few believe that modern DDRs take away from the classic DDRs. How many comparisons have been made to the 2009 FY errors to the 1955 DDR? Quite a few and I just do not see the point. The 1955 and others like the 1972 are classics and truly hold their own. These modern DDRs are just what they are, modern. It is what the Mint is giving us to collect these days. The unique design of the FY with Abe's finger in the central location of the die makes these modern DDRs even more interesting because it was a perfect storm of sorts: a design that lends itself to a dramatic error, problems with the dies, and poor workmanship at the Mint. That makes these 2009 FY special. The 2010 shield design is plain and dramatic DDRs will be highly unlikely and few and far between. So going forward at least as far as we can see in the future right now, they made a bang with the 2009 FY and gave us a lot to collect.
I agree with you guys completely. I am just so sick of these guys that I will not even comment on what they are saying and hopefully we can have a decent discussion as these coins are significant. Just do not even reply to them and hopefully they will go away and play in their own sandbox.

There are some of here that like these errors and want to have a discussion in the way we feel.
If we make a mistake in our judgement we will be the ones that are hurt, not you, so please leave us alone and answer other threads where you can be positive about what you want to and we will leave you alone.
Thank You,

Successful Trades: Swampboy,
HENY64 still is selling some 006's guys if you do not have enough already.
<< <i>HENY64 still is selling some 006's guys if you do not have enough already. >>
So why aren't you buying them?
To me, it sounds like you are spamming HENY64's sales. Are you two related?
BTW, shouldn't it be heny43?
The name is LEE!

Not to what you are collecting, your telling me/us these are emphatically DOUBLED DIES when in fact they have as yet, been totally accepted!
There are some of here that like these errors and want to have a discussion in the way we feel.
Not one poster is hampering your efforts in this thread, but apparently that's how you perceive it though.
If we make a mistake in our judgement we will be the ones that are hurt, not you, so please leave us alone and answer other threads where you can be positive about what you want to and we will leave you alone.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with defending your thoughts on how something occurred or how it should be handled for the future.
Thank You,

The better questions is why don't you buy them, you have been in this thread since the beginning i would think by now you would unload some of the extra cash off your cherry pickings, and join the group in a positive way, when i first joined i was told by some you need to have a tough skin around here WHY? i just can't understand why you have to keep coming back to a thread that you hate so much, seems to me you could go spend more time on other things that you enjoy. i am learning as a newbie its almost better just to lurk and not post anything oh well have a nice day
I used to be famous now I just collect coins.

I don't even know him. I have bought quite a few of them and have used up all my coin allotment already. Believe me I have enough already and am just showing this opportunity to anybody that is in need of them.
an unbelievable knowledge of numismatics and would help you in any was possible.if i remember
correctly lee wes heavily into finding these DDR's when they first came to the surface, along with YaHa. I
just can't find the original thread.
And of course the amount of magnification required is grossly exaggerated by the naysayers.
Unless you have bionic vision, I don't think anyone can see the complete details of the reverse in any of the four 2009 designs.
There is a lot of design in that 19mm of space

There's always the Original BOX DATES AND NUMBER FOUND thread where Billy and I kinda get into it because I was questioning the importance of some of these and he revokes my submission priviledges to him.
There's This one where I announced that I'd found a Proof DDR in one of the Silver Proof Sets. Everybody was concentrating on the LP2 boxes so I figured what the heck. There had to be a proof version.
And there's this one where I state I found two Proof DDR's (which BTW, are at only 4 different varieties found.
Your kinda right. The varieties and finding them is really cool and contrary to what folks may think, I have nothing against them at all.
It's the pumping that I have an issue with since there are plenty of these to go around. IMO, if folks can sell them 5 at a time, that's gotta say something.
Remember this one?
It's kinda cool.
The name is LEE!
should I send it in?
I have enough of these that if they do become valuable, I will not care if what I am selling them for now is only a fraction of the price.
So, why the constant discussion of how many, and how much?
