ADC-1c-2009(FY)-02

The following 2009 FY clashed die example also happens to be listed as a minor Doubled Die, WDDO-010 stage D (the illustration shows stage C which has since changed). At first glance it is very similar to (FY) 001 but the clash marks are clearly different.

For whatever reason, there has been a deluge of erroneously listed WDDO-010s on eBay which appear to be nothing other than a minor die clash known as Catfish Abe. Be cautious when purchasing or attributing. We are only aware of a handful being found thus far and no hypothetical stage Ds (abraded clash marks) have been reported either.

Markers: use clash marks; OBVERSE: die crack across nose; die crack across forehead; die chip on T of LIBERTY.
