    2013 DDR, I think this is new!

    This 2013 ddr looks to be a new discovery! It's very similar to the only other ddr for the date (1-DR-001) but almost identical to the doubling found on 2011 1-DR-002. Im having a difficult time with the new setup, so I hope you can get the idea from my meager pics. I'd like to send it out to Bob or Jay when they get a chance to look at it.
    LB shows a big southeast shift with notching!

    JFM showing extreme extra thickness and some notching:
    E PLURIBUS UNUM showing extreme incuse distortion (much like die 1):

    There is also pretty nice distortion over the entire UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, especially the O:



    What do you guys think?

      Certainly looks like A new DDR for 2013 Shield Cent Doubled Die Reverse. Who said searching 2013 cents were a waste of time?.
      I suggest keeping a couple boxes of rolls. Great find .

              Definitely worth having a look at. We have suspended attributions for now until we get the new coppercoins web site up and running in a couple of months. Please hold on to it until then. I will have finished my move also and can have a look at it and list it for you.

                        Sent this out to John Wexler this morning, so we'll hear his opinion shortly. Then it's off to Bob when he's ready. I'm confident that this one is not yet listed anywhere. Wish it was clearer in my photos, but the doubling is quite sharp under the scope. The Chuckster just pulled one last night, too. So it appears to have been released right here in the carjacking capital of the world, the armpit of America, beautiful New Jersey.

                          Life is not about greatness but on the impact of good onto others. It is a matter of how much one shines. Explains why I like shiny coins.

                            Update: John Wexler has confirmed that this is a new die! He will list it as WDDR-002. Pics are not yet up on his website, so I'll update everyone again when it shows up so you can get a better view of this new variety.
                            Also, he is illustrating it in his column "Varieties notebook," in COIN WORLD. Plans to have it in the March 17th issue, so be on the look out. A first for me. The kids are excited.
