The obverse of the 2009 Formative Years Lincoln cents shows the traditional Lincoln cent obverse that has been in use since the series was introduced in 1909.  The target area for doubled dies on this design is the area around the bottom of Lincoln's ear, the ERTY of LIBERTY, and the date.  The reverse of the 2009 Formative Years Lincoln cents shows Lincoln sitting on a log reading a book.  He is taking a break from his work as a rail splitter.  The target area for doubled dies on this design is the area where the left hand is holding the book.  While the entire obverse and reverse should be examined carefully for doubling, the target area is where you are most likely going to find the doubled die doubling.

If you have 2009-D Formative Years Lincoln cent reverse doubled die varieties that are not shown on this page, we would love to add them to our files.  Go to the Coin Examinations page to find the guidelines for submitting coins for attribution.  Just click on the link in the left column menu to access that page.
