Description
1997-D WDDR-005 is a doubled die reverse on the 1997-D Lincoln Memorial cent, cataloged by the Wexler team. The sixth column, left of the statue, is doubled along its right side, and the statue's legs are doubled on their upper right side. On the obverse, a gouge is in the center fold of the vest, right of the upper arm. On the reverse, a gouge touches the second A in AMERICA at its upper left. Gouges lie right of the lower twelfth column and just over the right Memorial base, and a gouge is on that base left of FG. Gouges flank the upper T in CENT on both sides, and one touches that T at its lower left. One gouge is in the upper part of the second bay, and another on the roof north of the third bay. Just above the roof, gouges sit south of the E of E PLURIBUS UNUM and south of the first U in UNUM. Joseph Koelling submitted the variety. Crawford lists it as CDDR-003.
