2007 Doubled Die Reverse WDDR-005

Description

Doubling on the left side of the seventh column to the right of the statue's left knee distinguishes this 2007 Lincoln Memorial cent reverse variety. Cataloged as WDDR-005 by the Wexler Team, the obverse die carries a die chip atop the second zero in the date along with a die crack running from the west-northwest to east-southeast through the hair on the upper back of Lincoln's head. The reverse presents its own progressive die deterioration: a pre-die-break depression centered on the E in ONE and a light die crack descending the left side of the C in CENT. These multiple markers across both sides make WDDR-005 one of the more readily attributable doubled dies in the 2007 Memorial cent series, offering collectors several confirming diagnostics beyond the primary doubling on the Memorial columns. Reverse: A pre-die break depression can be found on the center of the E in ONE.
