Not mine this time 8-)

Saw on Coin World's website another new Mercury Dime DDO was found - 1926:

CONECA attributed it, and has pics here:

Good year to be a Merc specialist I suppose 8-)

EDIT: Seems there is a new 28-D and 43 one as well in the e-book.

The "R" and the designer's initials look cool. Congrats to the accidental discoverer.

And the feathers on Liberty's cap is pretty neat too. I can see why this has eluded variety guys for a while, it's subtle enough to go unnoticed.

Interesting. Looks like the best PUPs are the R of Liberty and the back of the wing. Cool!

That's a good one. I like it more than the 1919, but I might think different if I saw a 1919 DDO in MS. I'll let you know if I find one... ha!

That's a nice one.

Would these qualify?

the 24 is an MS64FB #40574663 and the 26-D is also an MS64FB #38821602, Neither attributed as DDO... excuse the Cell Phone Pics...

The Variety Vista page does not show any known DDOs for 1924 or 1926-D:

It's always possible, though.
It will require better photos if you are not matching to a known DDO.
