1976-D Doubled Die Obverse WDDO-001

Description

The 1976-D Doubled Die Obverse WDDO-001 is a doubled die obverse (DDO) variety, where a misalignment during the die hubbing process created visible doubling on the obverse design elements. This variety was discovered on the 1976 (D) Lincoln Memorial Cent, part of the Lincoln Memorial Cents 1959-2008 series. Die markers: Obverse: A small die gouge protrudes from the lower left of the 6 in the date. A die gouge (dot) can be found under the horizontal bar of the 7 and another between the lower 9 and 7. Reverse: A small die gouge (dot) can be found to the right of the upper T in CENT.
