2007 (D) Lincoln Memorial Cent - Doubled Die Reverse WDDR-005

Description

Fifth in the growing catalog of doubled die reverses for the 2007 Denver Mint Lincoln Memorial Cent, WDDR-005 preserves yet another hub doubling event from the Memorial design's final production phase. By the time the fifth DDR was documented and attributed for this date, the 2007-D cent had joined a well-established pattern of modern Memorial Cent dates yielding multiple DDR varieties — a natural consequence of the enormous production volumes and the systematic variety research applied to bank-wrapped rolls throughout the early 2000s. The Lincoln Memorial reverse design, approaching its fiftieth and final year by 2007, had become the most familiar architectural rendering on American coinage, and its precise columnar geometry continued to serve as an effective framework for detecting hub displacement. Attributed by the Wexler Team under Wexler Variety ID: 2007-D 1¢ WDDR-005, this variety needs careful examination under controlled magnification to match specimens to the correct variety listing.
