Numbering Systems Used

"VCR#" = Numbers assigned by Ken Potter within the Variety Coin Register (mostly for "better" varieties). " FS#" = numbers assigned by Bill Fivaz and J.T. Stanton as found in The Cherrypickers' Guide to Rare Die Varieties and/or Cherrypickers' News. "Breen#" = numbers assigned by Walter Breen as found in his "Encyclopedia". Unprefixed "RPM#" = numbers assigned by CONECA as found in The RPM Book 2nd Edition for Lincoln cents and in Wexler/Miller's 1st Edition for the balance of denominations (these too, for the most part, are "official" CONECA numbers). "CONECA#" = numbers assigned by CONECA including Wexler's "old numbers" as found in his earlier books (these works were sold to CONECA or others after Wexler left the hobby) and sold to CONECA. "Wexler-" = Wexler's "new numbers" as assigned within the last few years (after his return to the hobby); now the official numbering system of NCADD for U.S. varieties (some of his "earlier new numbers" can be found with prefixes such as LCRPM (Lincoln Cent RPM) but the "LC" has been dropped from the system with the sequence numbers remaining the same).
Abbreviations Used
CPG = Cherrypickers' Guide to Rare Die Varieties, PQ = Premium Quality, i.e., a coin that may grade higher than assigned, DDO = Doubled Die Obverse, DDR = Doubled Die Reverse, RPM = Repunched Mint Mark, OMM = Over Mint Mark, DMM = Dual Mint Mark, scr = scratch, lt scr = light scratch.

1944-D/D 1c RPM#1 D/D North MS65 $24.95

1944-D/D 1c RPM#2-b D/D North + Minor DDO. The rev to this stage is supposedly a DDR 4-R-VI but it's either too minor for me to pick up or this is a new reverse unlisted by Wiles. MS63/appears as though they may have been dipped long ago; surfaces bright w/some dark purplish peripheral toning on most $6.50, MS63RD $7.50

1946-D/D 1c RPM#4-d D/D Northeast. Nice wide variety! Sharp on this clear mid-die state coin!

1946-D/D 1c RPM#6 D/D North. These are nice sharp earlier die state coins, (perhaps EMDS), with a complete secondary "D" showing within and to the north of the primary "D"!

1955-D/D/D 1c RPM#3, FS#1c-021.94 A nice stronger stage that shown in either edition of the RPM Book and displays a complete D/D to the east plus a split upper serif. This is a later die state at which point the RPM apparently strengthens. MS63...$24.95, MS64RD $29.95, ANACS-64 RED $45.00

1955-D/D 1c RPM#4a D/D Southwest; Stage-A w/north-to-south die scratches on obverse. Very nice variety! Rated in the CONECA RPM Book as a URS-6 in mint state (17-32 pcs. known); rated by Tom Miller as "scarce". MS63RDw/some scattered tiny specks $12.95, MS64 $18.00

1955-D/D 1c RPM#6 D/D West MS64RD $6.50, MS65RD $9.95

1955-D 1c Doubled Die Obverse "Doubled Eye" DDO#1 FS#1c-021.93, VCR#1/DDO#1 Nice doubling on the eye, ear, lapel and on the "19" of date!  ANACS-63RB $49.95, ANACS-64RD $67.00, ANACS-65RB (a very nice one that just came in -- pretty purplish color on obv -- I'd grade it MS64RB) $95.00, ANACS-MS65RD $150.00

1955-S 1c "Capped Head" VCR#1. This fascinating variety was created when the reverse die broke (over the right wheat ear - resulting in a "cud" major die break) and then the broken piece of die was struck by the dies. The result is a severely damaged obverse die right over Lincoln's head appearing as though he is wearing a cap!   MS65RD $125.00, ANACS-64 RB (This one is really 95% Red with a slight tinge of purple -- should have never been graded RB -- still I'd grade MS63/+ RD three tiny specs on rev)  Very attractive for grade! $95.00,  ANACS-64 RB (Here is another that should have been called RED)  Very nice for grade!  $125.00.  ANACS-65 RB (Yet another that should have been graded RED - it's as red as any of the other examples ANACS has graded for us over the years that came back red!) $150.00,  ANACS-66 RED $175.00

1955-S/S/S 1c RPM#1, FS#-1c-021.97, VCR#2/RPM#1 A really nice S/S/S with both underlying Mint marks to the north.  MS65RD...$75.00

1956-D/D 1c RPM#3, VCR#2/RPM#3 "Hooked D" Strongest D/D to the North known on the series! A super strong partial punching to the north that look like a "hook" or a Russian Sickle. Neat looking variety! Sharp early die state specimens! MS63/+ RD...$18.00, ANACS63 RED (PQ++)  solid MS65/66) $35.00,  MS65RD $32.50

1956-D/D 1c RPM#3, VCR#2/RPM#3 "Hooked D" Strongest D/D to the North known on the series! A super strong partial punching to the north that look like a "hook" or a Russian Sickle. Neat looking variety! Later die state than above.  ANACS-64 RED $24.95

1956-D/D 1c RPM#4 D/D North; sharp earlier die state.  MS64 RD $18.00, MS65 RD $24.95

1956-D/D 1c RPM#7 D/D North; sharp earlier die state. Most of these have a few inoffensive specs. MS63RD . . . $5, MS64/+ $7.50

1956-D/D 1c RPM#7 D/D North. Unlisted stage; exhibits the obv of Wiles' stage c w/die chip in upper 9 but rev has no die crack from wheat to rim. MS64RD . . . $7.50, MS65RD $8.50

1956-D&D 1c RPM#8, VCR#3/RPM#8, FS#1c-022, Breen#2219 "D and totally separate "D" South"  ANACS-63 RB $175.00, ANACS-64RD (actually a solid MS65RD in my opinion) $299.00

1956-D/D 1c RPM#9-c D/D Tilted. Said to be a URS-3 (3 to 4 known) but we have several in stock. MS63 w/obvious print $7.00, MS64RD $12.50

1956-D/D 1c RPM#13 D/D West. Fairly minor showing best in upper serif. MS64 or better $5.00

Wexler-DMM-001 ("old" Wexler-OMM#2),  FS-01-1956D-511 (new Fivaz/Stanton Numbering system format).  Fantastic variety shows strong traces of a totally separate "S" Mint Mark in the field just below the 1&9 of date! MS60 w/a few spots on obv $95.00, MS-63 Red $145.00, MS64 Red $175, PCGS-64RD $185.00, MS65 Red $225.00, ANACS-65 RD $235.00,  PCGS-65RD $265.00

1957-D/D + Doubled Die Obverse RPM#5 + CONECA-DDO-002 VCR#1/DDO#1/RPM#1 Nice doubled die shows best on LIBERTY; RPM is nice D/D South.  MS63+RD...$18.00, MS64RD $24.95, MS65 RD $35.00

We Only Deliver The Strong Stage!  NOT the common polished out stage

1959 1c Doubled Die Obverse DDO-001, FS#1c-022.2, VCR#1/DDO#1 Doubling shows very well to strong on the date; best on the 59. This is an earlier die state with some doubling also showing on LIBERTY.  Much stronger than the later stage shown in the Cherrypickers' Guide!   A super nice variety!  ICG-64RD $75.00

1959-D/D/D 1c RPM#1, VCR#1/RPM#1, FS#1c-022.5 This is a rare early die state with the tripling of the D still minimal and none of the errors on the reverse noted in James Wiles RPM Book for stage B.  Wiles has this stage (A) listed as unknown.  This is the first one I've seen in 25 years of handling the variety!  MS66 Red Blazer $85.00

1959-D/D/D 1c RPM#1, VCR#1/RPM#1, FS#1c-022.5 Strongest tripled "D" known on the Memorial series! MS63RD...$24.95, MS64RD...$34.95,  MS65 RD...$45.00

1959-D/D/D 1c RPM#3, Wexler-RPM-012 D/D/D North & Overlapping; average MS63/64 as they come out of the tube $5.50

1959-D/D 1c RPM#4 D/D (Rotated CCW according to book but is actually West w/no rotation) MS63 $5.50

1959-D/D/D RPM#5-b D/D/D Southwest & Serifs. Oft thought to be a D/Hz/D Ch BU/+ as they come from the roll...$7.50, hand picked MS64/+ $14.95

1959-D/D 1c RPM#8d, Wexler-RPM-008 D/D North; average MS63/64 as they come from the roll $5.75

1959-D/D/D/D 1c RPM#9 D/D/D/D South & South & South. Descriptions in Wiles' book not adequate to determine stage but these match the photo in the book. As they come from the roll - average MS63 $7.50

1960 1c LD Doubled Die Reverse. This one was sold to us a 2-R-VI (which it very well may be).  Is a variety that was later relisted as 2-R-II-VI by Del Romines. It shows all the doubling described by John Wexler in his book, The Lincoln Cent Doubled Die, on ONE CENT, the designer's initials (FG)  UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and EPU except that this is an early enough stage to show most of it as doubling to tripling instead of just thickening.  The tripling (or perhaps even quadrupling) on the R and last A of AMERICA, plus doubling at the tops of all of USA and bottoms of ONE CENT undoubtedly did look just like thickening on the later stages.  All I can say is that it is a really nice minor!  MS64 Red $14.95, MS65 Red $18.95, MS66 Red (a real blazer for the connoisseur) $24.95

1960 1c LD Doubled Die Reverse CONECA: DDR-012 (12-R-VI); minor MS63 $5.00, MS64 $6.50, MS65 $7.50, MS66 $9.95 $17.50

This is the more common Stage 4 (We have all stages in stock)

1960-D/D 1c Small Date over Large Date + RPM D/D Wide North!  MS63 RED may have a few specks or spots but not particularly distracting to the naked eye Stage 4 $175.00, ANACS-64 RD Stage 4 $275.00,  ANACS-65 RD (has a few specks would probably grade PCGS-64) Stage 3 $315.00, ANACS-66 RD (I'd grade MS65 RD) Stage 4 $450.00, ANACS-66 RD Stage 4 (Very Nice) $600.00

1960-D Large Date 1c Tripled Die Obverse. CONECA-3-0-III. This one is described in Del Romines', One Cent Doubled Die Update as follows: "1960-D 3-0-III (3) or multiple. Medium spread to East on LIBERTY. 9 has three tails, one east, one West and one center with what appears to be the remnants of a fourth nine on the upper left of the loop. 0 shows light double to the North with one faint division line visible on the upper left of 0. Light double on forehead. Heavy sandpaper marks are evident on LIBERTY and date; only what appears to be a MDS have been seen. If the sandpaper was an attempt to obliterate the double on the die, the MDS may well be VEDS. Apparently EXTREMELY RARE, as it could not have been missed by people searching for 1-0-III. Prices market tested. Additional coin received for examination while typing this coin is of LDS, and has developed a small rim cud to left and just above L of LIBERTY. Both states do have a lightly skirted R in LIBERTY." Romines' listed the variety with an estimated value of $150 in BU for the Mid Die State (MDS). I have one example of the MDS available in MS65 RD $115.00

1961-D/Over Horizontal/D 1c First listed by Albert Kramer in his 1967 "Double D Cent Guide" as 61W1; later by Jean Cohen as 61D-DM80, and by John Wexler and Tom Miller in The RPM Book as RPM#1 by James Wiles' in the The RPM Book - Lincoln Cents as CONECA: RPM-001, in Wexler/Flynn's, Authoritative Reference To Lincoln Cents as LCRPM-001, in Billy Crawford's, A Detailed Analysis Of Lincoln Cent Varieties as CRPM-001, in Walter Breen's Complete Encyclopedia of U.S. & Colonial Coins as Breen#2237, and in the Variety Coin Register as VCR#1/RPM#1. This one was slated for inclusion but missed the last two editions of the Cherrypickers' Guide to Rare Die Varieties due to what co-author J.T. Stanton each time described as "oversight" and is now slated for inclusion in the next edition as Cherrypickers' Guide# 01-1961D-501, (which is reflective of their new numbering system which is being introduced to the upcoming new edition).    While other controversial Lincoln cents have been alleged by some to be a "D over horizontal D" variety, this one is still the only Lincoln cent positively proven to be so as easily seen in the photo micrographic image supplied in the link above!  MS60/+...$19.95, MS63RD...$34.95, MS64RD $45.00, PCGS-64 Red PQ $95.00

1963-D/D 1c RPM#9 D/D East; fairly strong. Only one left in stock! Unc with spots $6.50

1963-D/D 1c RPM#10 D/D South. MS63 w/a few specks $5.00

1964 1c Doubled Die Reverse VCR#1/DDR#1, FS#1c-026. Strong Doubling on UNITED STATES OF AMERICA & EPU.  This is the nicer mid-die-state (an early mid at that!); the doubling shows much sharper than on the mushy late-die-state specimens typically encountered.  Most of these will have some planchet stains typical to the variety. Unc-details (obviously dipped to remove a large stain; lackluster) $35.00, MS60 (a counting machine scratch runs through STATES (but does not damage most of the strongest areas of doubling) $20.00, MS61R&B a large print dominates the obverse and 50% of the reverse $35.00, MS63/+ Red $75.00, MS64 Red $95.00

1964-D 1c Doubled Die Reverse VCR#1/DDR#1, Crawford: CDDR-001.  Shows nice with the secondary shift showing very well toward the rim on all lettering about the rim.  Somewhat subdued on AMERICA due to die abrasion.  Also on east and west sided of lower Memorial Building and corners of eaves.  This die state shows extensive die abrasion yet the doubling is strong in most areas.  MS64 Fiery Red $25.00, MS65 Fiery Red! $35.00

1968-S 1c Doubled Die Obverse 1-0-II Early Die State Shows well on IGWT MS62 Spotty $12.00, MS62RDw/rev print...$12.00, MS63RD...$14.50, MS64RD $24.95

No Date (1968-S) US Die!  This is a genuine 1968-S coinage die from the San Francisco Mint! Naturally, it has been defaced but the entire shank including the serial number, (prefixed by an "S" for San Francisco), is undisturbed making it one of the most unusual items you can own. Instead of being defaced by grinding, (the current method used by the Mints ), the devices were torched (or "puddled" - as they call it), leaving a much more aesthetically pleasing effect. This is NOT one of the commonly encountered Denver Mint dies that escaped the Mint a few years ago by the thousands and were defaced by the ugly grinding method. This is an historic United States San Francisco Mint coinage die that was used to strike Lincoln cents in the Mint nearly 40 years ago! These are getting harder and harder to find! Our supply of these dies is very limited! Once they are gone it is doubtful we will ever be able to offer them again! In the 34 years we've been in the coin business, we've learned that once items like this are gone -- they're gone!
The photo shown is of a couple we have in stock. The actual die delivered may have a different serial number than either of those shown here. In all other respects it will be virtually identical. $99.99

1969-D/D 1c RPM#1 /D/D CW. Listed in the book as NW, it's actually a CW shift. A nice variety! We have a dozen pieced in an average grade of MS64 all  have a hint of purplish toning $14.95

1969D/D 1c RPM#10 D/D North Scarce!! MS63RD $7.50, MS64RD $12.50, MS65 $18.50

1969-S/S 1c RPM#2 S/S West. Nice and very scarce to rare! MS63RD $17.50, MS64 $19.95, MS65RD $25.00

1969-S/S 1c RPM#3-c S/S West. Listed by Wiles as a URS-2 (2 known) but we have several. This is the stage with a multitude of fine die-lines on the obv/rev. MS63RD $17.50, MS64RD $22.50

1970-S/S 1c RPM#1 S/S North. Very strong variety in sharp earlier die state! MS63/+  Temp Sold Out

1970-S 1c LC-70D-7 Base Of Bust Cud.  Typical BOB Cud listed in the Thurman/Margolis book.  PCI (gold label) Graded MS66 Red (I grade it MS64) $18.00

1970-S 1c Doubled Die Obverse Low 70 over Very Low 70! This one is listed by John Wexler as WDDO-011 is very similar to FS#1c-030.1 except underlying 0 is more centered and also shows in the center of the upper loop of the primary 0. We like this one better!! MS62 $12, MS63RD $18, MS64RD $25.00, MS65 $35.00

Note On 1972 Doubled Die Prices:  J.T. Stanton, co-author with Bill Fivaz, of the Cherrypickers' Guide To Rare Die Varieties, has indicated that the prices for 1972 Doubled Dies#2 through #9 (and a few other varieties) as published in the Fourth Edition - Volume 1 are largely in error.   He explained that the editor of CPG used a template with nonsensical prices plugged in to create pages in which he later made changes dictated by the specifics of each variety.  In this case the "price changes" never actually occurred as the editor moved on to another job without actually finishing the editing of the CPG.   Some of the loose-ends that were not noticed by the authors never got fixed resulting in a few pricing errors scattered throughout the book.  We hope this explains why CPG lists most of the 1972 Doubled Dies at prices far lower that what we will buy and sell at.  

1972/72 DOUBLED-DIE 1c Variety-3 (DDO#3) FS#1c-033.3. Nice on Liberty and IGWT. See the Cherrypickers' Guide for pictures. AU-58 $6.00, MS62RD $10.00, MS63 Planchet Stains $12.00, MS63RD...$14.95, MS64RD...$24.95, MS65RD $35.00

1972/72 1c Doubled Die Obverse Variety-6 (DDO#6) FS#1c-033.6. Nice clockwise doubling on IN GOD WE TRUST, shows on 72 of date and light on portions of LIBERTY. MS63RD $19.95

1972/72 DOUBLED-DIE 1c Variety-8 (DDO#8) FS#1c-033.8. Nice on Liberty and IGWT. See the Cherrypickers' Guide for pictures. MS60 R&B w/Large Spot on Obv $12.95, MS60/62 R&B $18.00

1972/72 DOUBLED-DIE 1c Variety#9 (CONECA: DDO-009 and 9-0-V) FS#1c-033.59 Shows nice on the 2. See the Cherrypickers' Guide for pictures. Somewhat scarcer than most the other years MS63RD $14.95, MS64RD $24.95,  MS65 $35.00

1972/72 DOUBLED-DIE 1c Variety#10, FS#1c-033.55  This is CONECA's New DDO-005 (which replaced the old Master Die#5), Wexler's WDDO-010.  This one is similar to DDO-004 and was often misattributed as such when it was encountered in the old days.  This variety does not have the rim cuds that are found on DDO-004. This is a mid die state and the doubling is not as strong as on the early die state but it is the rarest of all the varieties listed and almost impossible to find in earlier die states (that often sell for well over $100).  This one is listed in Wexler/Flynn's, Authoritative Reference On Lincoln Cents where an earlier die state is shown.  MS63 Red $35.00, MS64 Red $45.00, MS64/+ $55.00

1972/72 DOUBLED-DIE 1c Variety#11.  This is a brand new variety that is similar to DDO-009 with the doubling over the tail of the 2 of date.  It is listed by us as VCR#11/DDO#11 by CONECA as DDO-010 and by Billy Crawford as CDDO-013.  There is also doubling inside the upper loop of the 2 and a trace of doubling under the horizontal bar of the 7.  Apparently rare!  MS63 Red $22.00, MS64 Red $29.95, MS65 Blazing Red $37.50 

1972-D/D 1c RPM#3 D/D West. This one is rated very scarce to rare in BU! We have seven examples, all with a few specks but otherwise MS60 w/lots of light specks $3.95, MS63 $7.50

1972-D 1c Breen#2268 "No VDB" due to excessive stoning ("polishing") of the die MS64 $12.50

1980 1c Doubled Die Obverse AU $125.00

1983 "No F" 1c This one is completely missing the "F" of Frank Gasparro's designer's initials on the reverse of the coin due to heavy die abrasion. MS63w/specks...$9.50, MS63RD or better $14.50

1983 1c "Extra Letters In Motto;" shows portions of an "extra" N, G & O (from IN GOD), below and within IN GOD. This is the result of a counter clash; a piece of scrap steel was struck by a die and then counter sunk into this die. Neat variety now listed in A Quick Reference to the Top Lincoln Cent Varieties where it is listed as CLO-002. ANACS65 $150.00

1983 1c Base of Bust Cud listed as LC-83-7 & "Spiked Head" Die crack MS63 $17.50

1983 1c Base of Bust CUD listed as LC-83-24 MS64RD $8.50, MS65RD Blazer! $14.50

1983 "Brass Plated Strikes" 1c 1983 cents struck on "brass plated planchets" were confirmed by the Mint officials and that information published in Coin World's, May 23, 1983 Collector's Clearinghouse written by Marilyn Van Allen). These are very similar to the 1985-D "brass plated strikes" offered below but these seem to be of a plating composition closer to the type of brass known as Tombac (being almost iridescent yellowish-green rather than the solid yellow of th1985-D issue). MS64 RD $25,  MS65 RD $35, MS66 RD $45.00

1984 1c Small CUD at rim next to 4 of date. Listed by Noe as LC-1984-23; this is probably LC-1984-33 MS64 $7.50, MS65RD $9.50

1984 1c "Atheist CUD" covers part of D and all of WE. Listed as LC-84-14 UNC w/specks/spots $12.95

1985-D "Brass Plated Strikes" Confirmed by the U.S. Mint as struck on "brass plate planchets"! Comes with copy of Mint letter of explanation and reprints of Coin World articles on the variety if requested. MS64/+RD...$24.95, MS65RD...$35.00, JT Stanton Signature Series Holders issued by PCI (coins graded and attributed for the error by JT Stanton): MS64 RD $24.95, MS65 RD $35.00, MS66 RD $45.00,  JT Stanton Signature Series PCI Graded:  PCI MS65 RD $55.00, PCI MS66 RD $65.00, PCI MS67 RD $75.00, PCI MS68 RD $95.00

1985-D/D 1c RPM#1-b Strong RPM listed in The RPM Book as a D/D Southeast. The typical grade of this one is UNC due to most specimens being struck on stained/spotted planchets. Nonetheless, it is RARE in any grade! $35.00

1985-D/D 1c RPM#5 A nice RPM shifted to the west. Very scarce to rare! MS64RD...$25.00, MS65RD $45.00

1987-D/D 1c RPM#3 A super RPM shifted to the North.  This is the STRONGEST RPM KNOWN for the date!!. Very Rare! with a URS rating of URS-3 (3 or 4 known) quoted in The RPM Book - Lincoln Cents - 2nd Ed!  Of course, there are more known now, but still, it is a rarity! MS64RD...$35.00, MS65RD Blazer!!! $55.00

1989 1c Doubled Die Obverse VCR#1/DDO#1.  This might be the same variety listed as 1-O-VI by Del Romines in his 1990 One Cent Doubled Die Update book produced while he acted as CONECA's doubled die attributer for Lincoln cents.  It shows extra thickness with clear divisions lines on the date, the R of TRUST and some of the upper hairlines just below IGWT. Not spectacular but a decent little doubled die for the specialist.  MS63 (with a spot on obv) $12.50, MS64 Red $19.95, MS65 Red $32.00. 

1995 1c Doubled Die Obverse VCR#1/DDO#1 This is the big one shown in the "Red Book"! These are sharp Stage-1 examples with nice clean fields and well defined crisp doubling on LIBERTY and IN GOD.  These coins were produced before the obverse die was stoned or otherwise dressed-out with an abrasive to remove minor flaws.  It is the more desirable stage preferred by collectors.   Don't be fooled by dealers that offer this variety for lower prices but fail to mention the die-stage!  When this is the case, they are almost certainly delivering the later stage specimens with the less defined doubling and heavy die lines (die scratches) showing in the fields. These are pieces that an East Coast dealer who had thousands of the 1995 doubled dies back over a decade ago creamed from the group and sent in to PCI when they ran a special on grading 1995 doubled die cents.  They are truly "wonder coins" in grade and flash!  I took five pieces had had their grades reaffirmed by JT Stanton and re-holdered in his "Signature Series" slabs.  PCI-69 Red Super Nice Brilliant Blazer in a JT Stanton Signature Series Holder!  $295.00

1995 1c Doubled Die Obverse VCR#1/DDO#1 This is the big one listed in the "Red Book!" These are Stage-2 examples with the die striations from stoning (as described above). Nice for the collector desiring to own both major stages! ANACS-66 RED $65.00 SOLD - We should have more soon.

1997 1c "Doubled Ear" Doubled Die Obverse.  CONECA-DD0-001, Wexler-DDO-001, FS#1c-043. This Doubled Die Obverse, often nicknamed the "Doubled Ear," displays strong doubling of the curl of hair above Lincoln’s ear and even stronger on the ear lobe; less obvious doubling shows on the lock of hair in front of upper ear and throughout other areas of the hair (doubling shows in a total of 15 areas). The cause is most likely due to a tilted die blank seating itself into proper position during the hubbing process -- a condition that has been confirmed as occurring by Mint workers with hands-on experience at both the Philadelphia and Denver Mints (though officials that sit in front offices with no hands-on experience -- deny it).  One Mint worker described the action of a tilted die seating itself properly during a hubbing as having a distinctive "clunking sound" -- a familiar ring to anybody who has spent considerable time operating  presses set up for stamping operations where the work-piece may be loaded off-location but forced into position by the upper die/tooling during a cycle (a sound this author has heard hundreds of times during his stint as a press operator).  No matter what you want to call it -- doubled ear or doubled die -- it's becoming more and more popular as existing supplies are disappearing! MS64 RED $225.00, MS65 RED $295.00

1997 "Brass Plated Strike" 1c These just came in and exhibit a sharp contrast in color difference between the normal "rosy red" issue. They have a very nice golden-brass color and are sure to please even the fussiest collector! Only 40 pcs came in; less than 20 left! MS64 RD $34.95, MS65 RD $45.00

1997-D "Brass Plated Strike" 1c Like the above these exhibit a sharp contrast in color difference between the normal "rosy red" issue. They have a very nice golden-brass color and are sure to please!  MS64 RD $24.95, MS65 RD $35.00, JT Stanton Signature Series PCI Graded: PCI MS65 RD $65.00

1998 "Brass Plated Strike" 1c Like the above these exhibit a sharp contrast in color difference between the normal "rosy red" issue. They have a very nice golden-brass color and are sure to please! MS64 RD $24.95, MS65 RD $35.00, MS66 RD $45.00, JT Stanton Signature Series PCI Graded: PCI MS65 RD $55.00, PCI MS66 RD $65.00, PCI MS67 RD $75.00, PCI MS68 RD $95.00, PCI MS69 $150.00

1998 1c Type-1 (Regular Business Strike Style Reverse From Original Mint Rolls!  Description:  This is the regular business strike variety (Ty-1) the letters AM of AMERICA are close together and almost touching; the designer's initials, FG, (at the right side of the base of the Memorial Building) are spaced well away from the building.  These are for the person who is buying a ICG Certified Ty-2 (see below) and wants a certified Ty-1 for comparison.  ICG-66 RD $14.95

1998 1c Type-2 Wide AM (Proof Style ReverseAll From Original Mint Rolls!  Description:  On the regular business strike variety (Ty-1) the letters AM of AMERICA are close together and almost touching; the designer's initials, FG, (at the right side of the base of the Memorial Building) are spaced well away from the building. On the Ty-2 business strike with proof style reverse the letters AM of AMERICA are spaced significantly further apart than on the the Ty-1; the designer's initials, FG, are close to the base of the Memorial Building.  The Ty-2 issue is very scarce on both 1998 and 2000 dated cents.  In John Wexler's front page Coin World story of January 22, 2001 he reported the discovery of a 2000 dated business strike Lincoln Cent struck with a proof style reverse die.  Shortly after his announcement the same variety was found on 1998 dated cents.  As noted by Wexler, since 1993, the reverse dies for the Lincoln Cent have bore noticeable differences between the dies used for general business strikes and those prepared for special proof coinage.  In fact, in our Coin World VIP tour of the Philadelphia Mint, (that Wexler and I attended in 1998), a Mint spokesman noted that the dies for proof cents were different from business strike dies, with special enhancements of the proof dies implemented for cosmetic reasons.  It was obvious that the proof style dies were never intended to be used for business strike coinage. So far, finds of the Ty-2 variety have proven to be very few and far between with the 1998 about seven times (7x)  as scarce as the 2000.  We offer the 1998 examples as follows: MS63 RD - $35, MS64 - $45, MS65 RD - $75,  PCGS MS66RD $235.00

1998 1c Type-2 Wide AM (Proof Style Reverse) As described above AU-55/+ $19.95

1998 1c Type-2 (Proof Style Reverse) w/"Phantom D" Mintmark!  From Original Mint State Rolls! Some of the 1998 Ty-2 Rev. pieces that came in also exhibit the so-called "Phantom D" Mint Mark; slight traces of the Denver Mint Mark that were left on the 1998 Lincoln cent master hub, modified for use as a Philadelphia hub.  The so-called "Phantom D" variety was created by the Mint by grinding the Denver Mint Mark off the master hub and then using it to produce a master die for Philadelphia cent die production.  Traces of the D remained on the master hub and were transferred to the master die and then to working hubs and further on to working dies.  In general, the "Phantom D" wore off the tooling in short order and thus only shows on coins produced from earlier stages of the Philadelphia cent tooling.  We make note of them here for those that are interested in acquiring one with the Type 2 reverse.   MS63 RD - $45, MS64 RD - $55.00

1999 1c Wide AM Ty-2 (Proof Style Reverse) This Is The RARE ONE!  Same variety type as described for the 1998 above (and 2000 below).  AU-55 (very nice with lots of red) $175.00, AU-58 (looks MS64)  $250.00, MS64 RD - $495,  MS65 RD - $650, PCGS-64RD Very PQ!! (should have gone MS65) $650.00

1999-S 1c Proof Ty-1 (Business Strike Style Reverse); discovery recently reported as the lead front page story in Coin World and Numismatic News.  It is the variety with the business strike style reverse with the "Close AM" of AMERICA where they are almost attached.  So far reports on this variety are very few and far between.  The first one offered on eBay sold on April 11 in a little-known lower-tier  grading service holder as an MS70 for $761.00 while the second one offered sold on April 18 in a clad proof set ungraded for $911.00.  The ones offered here are "singles" that were removed from sets and sold to us as such.  Proof-64 $399.99, ANACS PF-64 DCAM $425.00,  ANACS PF-66 DCAM $750.00, ANACS PF67 DCAM $850.00, ANACS PF 68 DCAM $950.00

2000 1c Wide AM Type-2 (Proof Style ReverseFrom Original Mint State Rolls! On the regular business strike variety (Ty-1) the letters AM of AMERICA are close together and almost touching; the designer's initials, FG, (at the right side of the base of the Memorial Building) are spaced well away from the building. On this business strike with proof style reverse (Ty-2) the letters AM of AMERICA are spaced significantly further apart than on the the Ty-1; the designer's initials, FG, are close to the base of the Memorial Building.  The Ty-2 issue is very scarce on both 1998 and 2000 dated cents.  In John Wexler's front page Coin World story of January 22, 2001 he reported the discovery of a 2000 dated business strike Lincoln Cent struck with a proof style reverse die.  Shortly after his announcement the same variety was found on 1998 dated cents.  As noted by Wexler, since 1993, the reverse dies for the Lincoln Cent have bore noticeable differences between the dies used for general business strikes and those prepared for special proof coinage.  In fact, in our Coin World VIP tour of the Philadelphia Mint, (that Wexler and I attended in 1998), a Mint spokesman noted that the dies for proof cents were different from business strike dies, with special enhancements of the proof dies implemented for cosmetic reasons.  It was obvious that the proof style dies were never intended to be used for business strike coinage. So far, finds of the Ty-2 variety have proven to be very few and far between.  We offer the 2000 examples as follows:  MS63 RD - $25, MS64 RD - $35, MS65 RD - $45, MS66 RD - $49.95, ICG-64 - $42.50, ICG-65 - $49.95, ICG-66 $55.00, ICG-67 $85.00, ANACS-64 RD $45.00, ANACS-65 RD $55.00, NGC MS66RD $95.00

1950-S over Inverted S (So-Called "S over D") 10c    This is CONECA's old OMM#1 and the Cherrypickers' Guide FS-014.5.  It is the so-called "S over D" that is misattributed as such in the Red Book, The Authoritative Reference on Roosevelt Dimes, Cherrypickers' Guide and until recently, in the CONECA files.  Recent overlays created by Ken Potter and Billy Crawford (independent of one another) have demonstrated that a D Mint mark does not match the underlying image below the S on this coin but that an Inverted S is a "perfect fit" (as has been suspected by some specialists for years).  Ken Potter, Billy Crawford, John Wexler and James Wiles have all indicated that the overlays debunk the "S/D" theory and will be listing it as an S/Inv/S.  It it actually an S over Inverted S is a truly rare variety type in it's own right.  In fact Vertical over Inverted Mint Mark varieties are far less common on United States coinage then Over Mint Marks!  No matter what you want to call it, it is a major variety that here to stay since it's listing in the Red Book cemented it in as a "must have" to collectors of the series.  The example we offer here is virtually blast-white with hints of attractive toning just beginning to show.   It is a high-end MS64 with a shot at MS65!  See the pictures by clicking on the link above.  ANACS-64 $499.00 SOLD

All of the pieces here are bright white.   The "lower" grades are all extremely high-end and grade higher than noted on the holders in my professional opinion.  Even the MS60 is a super looking coin!   ANACS-60  (looks like a MS62 or MS63 to me!) - $75.00

1957-D/D 25c RPM#1-b D/D Northeast MS63 $22.50

1979-S 25c Proof Type-2 Mint mark $4.50

1989 25c No Mint Mark (No P).  This is actually an error due to a "filled die" and not a variety.  Was promoted by the late Harry Forman in the early 1990s and later as a variety and still has some moderated demand.  UNC-62/63 (hard to grade due to being a filled die) $35.00

Silver Dollar Varieties

2000 Colorized American Silver Eagle $1 coin as seen on TV! Interesting in that the colorization process was off-register and resulted in the colorized date and rays of sun being widely off-set like a monster doubled die variety. Neat!

George Washington & John Adams Dollar Varieties

(2007-D) George Washington Dollar "Smooth Edge" / Edge inscription missing.  This one has the predominantly "golden" edge characteristic to the Denver issues (the Philadelphia issues have a wide band of copper on the edge).  Far scarcer than the Philadelphia issue!  Early die state MS64/+ SOLD

2007-P John Adams Dollar Double Edge Lettering and Smooth Edge ErrorsClick here to see current prices.

2007-P John Adams Dollar "Large Font" and "Small Font" Edge Lettering. Set Of Four Coins.  We do not know the exact cause but the  so-called Large Font is distinctly different than the Small Font in that the Large Font has wide flat tops that are nearly as wide as the bases of the letters while the Small Font is characterized by a gradual taper that results in more pointed tops to the letters.  Per Set with tops of Large and Small Font letters facing reverse (Position A) and Large and Small facing obverse (Position B). Total of four coins: MS63 $14.95, MS64 $24.95, MS65 $39.00

2007-P John Adams Dollar.  Matte Finish Edge/Small Diameter Errors!  These errors obviously went through the Schuler edge letting machine with the edge lettering die set too tight.  The result is that the coins were force-spun butted up all the way to the shoulder of the edge letting die thus transferring a sort of matte effect from the shoulder of the edge lettering die to the edge of each coin.  The process also reduced the diameter of each coin significantly in addition to creating extremely strong edge lettering and thicker rims (you can only fit 23 of these into a plastic tube intended to hold 25). We purchased just under 50 of these and found their average diameter at around 26.33 while the diameter of  the normal coins is 26.50.  We offer them as follows:  MS63 $39.95, MS64 $49.95, MS65 $75.00

1903 Morgan Dollar Repro Obverse/2003 CONECA 20th Anniversary Reverse.  This is one of just 64 complete sets of this issue that were produced!  It contains the pure copper regular strike (mintage 150), a pure silver regular strike (mintage 100), pure silver Off Center (mintage 66), pure silver Double Strike (mintage 72) and the special pure copper Double Strike (mintage 64).  The pure copper strike was only available to purchasers of the complete set!  This edition was offered to CONECA members-only from July 2003 through May 2004.  I  purchased three sets and offer two of them for sale here.  They are of a nice frosty BU finish so that they look like the real thing and are of the normal 38.1 mm diameter of a United States silver dollar (within normal tolerances) so that they not only look like the real thing but are of the correct size.  When you display a CONECA 20th Anniversary Medal Off-Strike, obverse up, it looks just like a real Off Center or Double Struck Morgan Dollar!  I purchased the last three sets that were available before the offer was closed out and offer them at each $225.00

Errors & Varieties

One Cent Pieces

1962&1963 1c set of five different pcs showing the so-called "Boomerang" Die Clash or "Hanging 2" or "Hanging 3". Three different 1962 representing a single, double and triple clash; two different 1963 showing a single and a double "hanger." Total of  five coins. Nice BU sets! $6.50

1965 1c Doubled Die Reverse / Extra Bud Variety.  Shows as an extra bud in the Maple Leaf Sprig.  Really neat!    JT Stanton Signature Series PCI Graded: MS63 RD $125.00, MS64 RD $145.00, MS65 $185.00

1974 1c Strike Through covers lower half of 19 to rim down over all of CA of CANADA; pronounced. BU $7.50

Five Cent Pieces

1964 5c Extra Waterline!  This is the famous Extra Waterline Nickel which shows a line-line die break extending from the left side of the island up under the K.G. designer initials almost to the rim. Nice prominent and popular variety that has stood the test of time!  MS62 $59.95, Nice Frosty MS63 $95.00, Nice Frosty MS64 $250.00

1965 5c Small but deep strike through error at base of island MS63+ $2.50

1965 5c Large Beads Variety!  Very rare earlier die stage!  This is one of dozen Large Beads coins known from the Kennison discovery hoard I reported upon in Canadian Coin News, Coin World and World Coin News back in December of 1996.  The obverse contains 138 Large Beads bordering the rim vs. the 119 on the common Small Beads variety.  Of the 12 pieces found by the discoverer, 10 were later stage pieces with most of the cameo effect on the obverse gone along with weakened design detail in the tiara and other areas of the portrait.  These are the two from that small hoard that was from an earlier stage of the die with a nice strong cameo obverse and reverse and stronger design detail (perhaps best characterized by the weak but nonetheless full attachment of the rear jewel).  The ten later stages were dispersed into the marketplace years ago with most being certified by ICCS and probably representing the ten examples known referenced in Charlton.  These are the last two coins available from the Kennison hoard, which apparently may be where all of the Large Beads specimens currently known come from.  The last auction results that I am aware of for this variety in the later stage (no auctions results are known for the earlier stage) was for two pieces trading at the July 2006 Canadian Numismatic Association Convention Auction where an ICCS-MS63 sold for $1,400.00 and an ICCS-MS64 sold for $2,600.  The 2007 61st Edition of A Charlton Standard Catalog Canadian Coins values the same grades at $3,000 and $5,000 respectively, a huge leap from the $1500.00 the year before for an MS63 (they did not give a value for the MS64 in the 2006 catalog).  We offer both of the earlier stage pieces from that hoard here in PCI Signature Series Holders (signed by Ken Potter, CONECA/NCADD's official attributer of world doubled dies). Pedigree on the holders state the coins as from the "Kennison Discovery Hoard."  No collection of Canadian five-cent pieces is complete without one of these rare pieces!  Proof Like MS62 $1500.00, Proof Like MS63 $2000.00

1968 PL $1 "Extra Waterlines Dollar" VCR#3/DDR#1 Canada's most popular doubled die! This is the original "Extra Waterlines Dollar" nicknamed and promoted as such by the discoverer. It exhibits the strongest doubling of the waterlines of any of the known varieties for this date. Now listed in the Charlton Standard Catalogue of Canadian Coins and in Canadian Coin News Trends! Exhibits strong doubling on the waterlines and horizon lines (collectively referred to as "waterlines") in front of the canoe, the date, feather in Indian's hair, and portions of CANADA and ONE DOLLAR. Charlton and CCN both incorrectly list this as a business strike. It is actually a proof-like variety. We offer ours as follows: PL-65...$48, PL-65 Mint Sealed in pliofilm cut out from a PL set...$50, PL in Mint sealed set $65.00

1968 PL $1 Doubled Die Reverse VCR#6/DDR#4. Very similar to the "Extra Waterlines Dollar" and nearly as strong on the waterlines, date and other areas described for DDR#1. Scarcer than DDR#1. PL...$25, PL Mint sealed $27.00

1968 PL $1 Doubled Die Reverse VCR#13/DDR#11. Light to moderate doubling on the waterlines, date, DOLLAR and other areas. This and other minors are frequently labeled as the "EWLD" and sold at inflated prices. PL $5.00

1975 Ty-2 PL $1 "Ghost Islands Dollar" VCR#3/BDV#1. The reverse shows two incuse "ghost islands" above the normal island in front of the canoe. A very interesting variety resulting from an unknown cause. The obverse is the Ty-2 "detached jewel" type. Seemingly popular - the last I saw offered on a list sold in excess of $100 CN! PL-65 in Mint issued case...$35, in PL Mint sealed set $40.00
