2009 Formative Years Doubled Thumbs..

[DrunkNumismatist]

Has anyone else been collecting these doubled dies?

[duck620]

I've been collecting these double dies since first discovery. Have found quite a few of all varieties in the 2009 FY.

I just got started on these a few weeks ago. So far I have about 25 wddr's. I also just bought 3 uncirculated rolls that yielded 19 of the wddr-046 error. Ebay seems to be drying up somewhat in regards to these.

I have tried, but I can't get any ANYWHERE. I have found a few 2009 FY, but no DDs. I do have one of the ones with the doubled logs on the cabin, though. It is a minor one, though.

If you go to Ebay and search under "wddr" you will find some )

I have been collecting them since the beginning. I don't have all of them, but I do have most of them. I also have over 2,000 duplicates. If anyone is interested in purchasing some for their own collection, PM me and I will send a list of what I have.

[DrunkNumismatist]

Bob, which of the "Best of" FY's do you have?

[mustbebob]

Greg, If you are referring to the LCR top 10, I have duplicates of numbers 1, 2, 3, 6, 7,9, and 10

I have all of those as well except for number 009 i think....but I was referring to Wexler's "Best of" from the doubleddie.com website. He singles out about 30 of them as "Best Of".

[mustbebob]

I will have a look at his list, and get back to you.

[DrunkNumismatist]

Sounds good..if you can't find it...i will post it here when I get a chance...

I have searched alot, but haven't found many 2009s. I have like 2 or 3 of the Log Cabin DDRs, but none of the FY DDs. I want to have the satisfaction of finding my own, but may have to buy one from you Bob. Thanks,

flyhi3, I would also recommend searching some uncirculated FY rolls if you have access to a fair dealer who sells them cheap. I've only searched about 10 rolls so far, and I've already found 2 rolls with doubled thumbs in them. I'm not sure if this is a good sign or not (if they end up being too common, the value will depreciate), and maybe I was just lucky. But its worth a try, and searching is half the fun :)

I was into these for a while and got up from 001 to about WDDR-065 or so before I got a little overwhelmed. I might get back into, but finding the remainder may prove hard...

[DrunkNumismatist]

Jcuve...there are actually alot of good sellers on ebay who have just about all the WDDR's for the FY and are willing to sell them in bundles for a third to a half of the wexler prices. I can give you the names of a couple if you want to email them on ebay, or mustbebob says he has most of them too, and is willing to sell.

I do not have access to a dealer with them (as far as I know) What is a "fair" price? I think finding them in bank rolls for face value is more fun!
