1983 Doubled Die Reverse (Scarce DIE #2)

[1sgret]

This is the DIE #2 which is considered more scarce than the Die #1. The doubling on the Reverse is not as strong.

The letter of E. PLURIBUS UNUM and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and CENT have prevalent doubling and separation lines. There is some notching of STATES.
This coin was very hard to photgraph due to the strength of the doubling.

I just got this one back from ANACS.

What was the total price from ANACS to have that coin certified.

I use mostly Economy service with a 5 coin Min $12.00 per coin and $5.00 variety fee if you give them the variety number. Plus S/H/I coming back. Go to www.ANACS.com (http://www.ANACS.com) or click on to "places to go" at the top of the page for Brad's link for submission form and information. I ship mine to them with First class mail and delivery conformation in most cases.

Hi Roger: I have been dealing with ANACS since 1984 and as far as service and quality I have never had any problems.

I get most of my coins certified so that there is no dispute when they are handed down to my heirs. This includes Varieties/Errors/High Grade Coins and Discovery Pieces.:tinysmile_hmm_t:

Some other grading firms are too expensive and some do not even list newly found varieties and some will not encapsulated Discovery Pieces.

I am not a dealer so I do not warrant a discount (I wish I did). I do not sell any of my coins. I might trade my extras to add something to my collection that I want or need. I have alot of fun with this hobby and enjoy the chase. Good Hunting!!!!!!:)

Thanks for comments Brad, Sandra, David, Jean, Roger and Closelook.

ANACS is the best for varieties...without a doubt.

Super DDR Joe! That is one tuff variety to locate. Many, many times more rare than the major DDR.

Congrats on the coin!

Thanks Billy. This one makes two for my collection. My other one is carbon spotted terribly on the reverse.
