Buyer Beware | I'm not an expert, but this 1917 DDO is missing something

Like, the hub doubling? Or, am I wrong?

I'm not picking up any doubled die at all, much less DDO1. Just some MD.

Looks like a case of MD

[GrumpyEd]

Wow, $1275.

On the 1917 DDO even in very low grades you can clearly see the doubling inside the R of trust, that area is well protected. This coin is in nice shape and shows none of the right doubling anyplace, just some MD.

Yep...a mechanical doubling coin being passed off as a rare doubled die.

eBay needs to be contacted on this one before someone else gets themselves hurt buying that coin.

I am glad all of you said MD because that was the first thing I thought... Maybe I'm actually beginning to learn... LOL!!!

I reported it. Historically I have made little to know progress getting coins pulled with MD labeled as a particular doubled die. It sometimes works with a biggie (1955, 1972, 1984 etc), but most often it gets sent to their so called CCW and they do nothing. I am not sure I have tried a 1917...

Agree with Jason...counterfeits are pretty easy to get pulled,but getting something like this pulled is difficult especially if they don't specifically identify it.My feeling if somebody spends this kind of money on MD without researching it....too bad.
