Hello, all.
I just joined the forum a few weeks back and am taking advantage of a rainy day here in the Norheast to finally get around to asking a few questions about some recent roll finds.
This is a 2002-P with a doubled reverse. I think it's 1-DR-004, but I couldn't find any of the markers. It does have a large die chip in the first column on the left. Does anyone agree this is 004? Sorry for the oversized pictures!

Welcome to the forum hfy88. I'll hang out the welcome sign:
From first glance the size of the bars appeared the same. But when sizing them to the same height they are different. The extra knee is not as strong on your image. Here is a side by side to show you what I mean.
It may be a new die if it is strong enough to qualify. Wait for Bob to chime in.

hyf88, Welcome to the forum! We enjoy "new blood"!
That looks like it might be border-line. It also reminds me of the batch of '07's, that had a bunch of small bars on column 7, and a shattered head. The bars were less than an upper-arm length, and did not qualify. I had nearly a roll of them

Looks like a similar smaller one.

hyf88 - your coin is not from the same die as the one Coop shows. You would need more doubling to end up with a listable coin, unfortunately. There are hundreds of different dies in these 'extra column' doubled dies, and given that, listing all of them is all but impossible. We have initiated a 'minimum doubling' rule on these that the extra bar must be at least as long as the distance from the hand to the foot, or have more than one point of doubling to be a listable die. Yours does not meet this criteria.

Thanks for the responses and welcomes!
Chuck, thank you for the clarification, this is a new area for me and it helps alot to know the criteria for what I should be looking for. Having never even looked for these types of doubled dies before I can only imagine the ones I've missed over the past few years of searching. Now, to find one of the bigger ones!
