I purchased this 1962 P Lincoln Cent from Paul Pinnelle. I didn't see a listing here Is it worthy of listing here on Coppercoins?

Earwig,
Yes, It is the one listed on Ebay. It has a strong doubling in the date and liberty. The picture's don't show how good of a D/D Obverse it really is. I might add that coppercoins was used as a "Reference" to this coin in the description. That may be the way around all the "selected grading services".

That one's surely listable.
Looks like they have a spot reserved for it but no photo.
I think it might be Coneca die-1, I've also seen the WDDO-001 (which might be same as Coneca die-1?) and it looks like it.

1962 is one of the years that Chuck and I both have many, many doubled dies of...including the one you have pictured here. There are so many doubled dies for this year in both business strikes and proofs. Chuck and I will need to get together and see which ones we have, as I am sure we both have many of the same ones. We have the same problem with 1963 and 1964 coins. What it is going to take to get them listed is a lot of time and effort, and time right now is at a premium for me.
We do know about those years I have mentioned, and some day, we will get to listing them all. Until then, your is definitely a listable variety, and a very strong one at that. As Ed mentioned, it might be CONECA die 001, and we might have a spot for it on the site already, but no pics. We will get them listed when we can get the time to do so.

Definitely a nice, strong doubled die, and possibly one that's already waiting to be listed on the site.
Word of education...stop using "D/D" to abbreviate "Doubled Die". Specifically, "D/D" notes a D/D RPM...and that's not what this is.
Doubled dies are ALWAYS abbreviated as "DD" with the letter for the side of the coin following..."O" for obverse and "R" for reverse. What you have in this thread is a "DDO", not a "D/D".
