Been checking for varieties in my hoard, and just found a 1980 Double Die in EF condition.

Nice find. That one certainly is a DDO. A bit worn, but just like the pic in cherry pickers guide. Most of the visible doubling are in the 8 and 0, just like in the guide, with the 9 and 1 being wide.

Good find.

That is an amazing find! That is not an easy die to find, you should be very proud! I've been through a lot of pennies looking for that one.
