2001 (D) Lincoln Memorial Cent - Doubled Die Reverse WDDR-015

Description

Fifteenth doubled die reverse for the 2001 Denver Mint Lincoln Memorial Cent, WDDR-015 extends the DDR catalog for this date to fifteen documented hub misalignment events — a count that reflects both the massive volume of 2001-D cent production and the methodical examination that variety researchers have applied to surviving specimens. Each DDR in the sequence represents a distinct hub displacement during a separate die manufacturing event, with unique characteristics of spread direction, magnitude, and affected design elements that distinguish it from all fourteen previously cataloged varieties. The Memorial reverse's architectural precision — particularly the evenly spaced columns and the geometric window and door elements — provides an ideal framework for detecting and measuring hub displacement. Cross-referenced as Wexler Variety ID: 2001-D 1¢ WDDR-015, this variety was attributed by the Wexler Team and contributes to one of the most extensively documented modern cent production years for doubled die varieties.
