    DDR with many struck threw impressions.

    Could not come up with a match of the DDR several were similar but couldn't confirm with die markers.

    That's a really nice doubled column! I'm looking too and not seeing a match. Going back to look again. It looks similar to coppercoins.com Die #8, but I think your doubled column is longer.

    Or maybe Wexler's Die #7 http://doubleddie.com/426401.html

    Well... Die 7 doesn't have any markers... hummm....

      I'm having the same issue with a 98P that is in the same exact location. That is some crazy struck through action too! Wow!

        On Wexler, 007 and 021 are the closest thing I see. I think the photos don't depict the correct length sometimes on the listings and makes it a little tougher too.

          We can see what the pros' say but I think you have an unlisted doubled column! I can't seem to find a match either. Very nice find, Congrats!

            Nice find.
            Is there some zinc showing at the bottom of the anomaly closest to the tie? It looks like a little spot of grey.
            Any chance it could be a defective zinc core blank?
            I would think that some coins exhibit depressions that they are caused by voids in the surface of the zinc before it gets plated.

            Seems like the zinc blanks must be rolled, cut, sent through the upsetting mill and then plated, with a few misc. steps in between. Just like there are defective copper planchets before the strike, it would make sense that the zinc blanks could have voids in the surface before plating.

              Thanks Viv, I also checked CC and Wexler's to find a match. Maybe it is a early die stage.
