    1950-d Distended Hub Doubling?

    Hi, I wanted to know if this coin shows "Distended Hub Doubling"? I know that for it to be this it must show thickness and show notching or slight seperation lines. To me it looks like the lower left of the 0 in the date shows slight seperation and everything looks fat. The mint mark looks fat, but I think it might be wear. Also, I'm not sure if the whole coin is fat due to wear. Thanks for the help.
    PS
    Sorry about the condition of the coin, the thickness just caught my eye and I remembered seeing that Class VI doubling is fat.

    Sorry, I think it is a combination of wear and damage. The coin also appears to have been plated with something. I do not see anything that looks like wear. Sorry!

      There is a more particular distortion in either: the lower portions of the date; IBER of LIBERTY; E in WE; RU in TRUST; and or OD in GOD. It can be present in almost all of LIBERTY the date and motto, but that is uncommon. I would search coppercoins.com by class VI through the '30s-'50s for some examples. Note how strong 1934 1DO-003 and 1943 1DO-001 are.

        Actually, Distended Hub Doubling (Class 6) does NOT necessarily have notching or separation lines unless it is accompanied by another class of doubling like Class 2 (Distorted Hub Doubling). It is mainly characterized by extra thickness.

          The 1934-P 1DO-003 is a great example because it shows so well.
          Some things to look for to ID these class 6 DDOs is the E of WE often has what looks like a ski ramp on the lower bar. On LIBERTY the B can have a curved vertical bar. There often is no notching even on the extreme ones. After you see a few it's hard to miss them.
