Congrats Jon, that is a nice DDR! A little different in that JFM gets most of the glory! Usually the LB steals the show! Cool find!

You're welcome Jon, and hoping the same wishes for you this New Year! I must admit, my heart still flutters every time I flip over a 92P or D!

Thanks!! You finished strong with that RDV-006 find (still looking for mine), so I'm sure your next variety is just around the corner!

That is an excellent find... Do you have the chip north of the LU in EPU??? I am not convinced this is WDDR-003 tho... Wexler makes no mention of EPU being in the DDR also Wexler states the strongest of the DDR is in AMERICA and on yours the strongest doubling appears to start at the 1st S of STATES??? Maybe a PM to Bob would be in order to give a pros look!!!

Besides a great find, I think you got some Karma started for the coming year.

I'll check for the marker when I get home this evening. I enlarged it and I think I can see it though. Good point on the description in the listing.

It's toned and trying to hide but everything looks to be there.

That looks like the chip... EPU could be from circ wear and PSD as there are some hits across EPU... STATES OF and the LB are still throwing tho??? Oh well... It is a really nice DDR either way!!!

Let me really mess with you now. Here is the post of the one I sent to Mr. Wexler as a possible discovery coin. I think he just omitted or overlooked some info. I believe these are both 003. http://www.lincolncentforum.com/forum/showthread.php?41822-2015-1%A2-WDDR-003-I-think&highlight=2015+wddo-003

Guess what - Mind BLOWN :LOL_Hair: I think you are correct... The pic of the chip on Wexlers http://doubleddie.com/1542214.html shows part of EPU and there is clear distortion in the letters and are similar to yours... The coin in this post looks to be the same die stage and the previous post looks to be earlier... Way to go!!!

Hopefully he will update the listing. Should I send him a follow up email? There is nothing worse than multiple listings of the same variety, very aggravating.

Unfortunately it is but would rather have a revised existing listing than have a discovery coin which is already a listing.
