I'm leaning toward DDO-003, maybe DDO-008.

Is this a serious question?
I know I have had some wine tonight but do you not see the doubling?
@Paradisefound ...I know shes been rode hard and put up wet but, take a closer look!
Is that a reference to DDO-4?
Look for the die markers: cud by LIBERTY and scratches. Hard to see with all the PMD. Based upon your pics and below links... looks to messed-up.

Looks like it might be a 3 or 8. The only way to tell for sure would be to run over it with your car a few more times.
Just have a 2nd pour .... oh yes I did see the slight doubling seriously .... before the pour
This is 8..... The OP's coin looks to be a very LDS
maybe this would help
just some filters to help. looks intenitional
That coin is basically destroyed.

Are we talkin about coins ?
if it is, then damaged as bad as that, I really cant see who would want it anyway to be honest.
By the way, I get this everyday in the shop either on a phone call with texted pictures, and dropping by. I don't mind helping folks anyway I can, I have to thank my old mentors for the questions I asked back when I was a young Numi. But some of these people just refuse to accept the answer you give them that theirs isn't a variety, or its not this or that. They just keep coming and coming with nothing. I got one guy that drives an hour every other day to show me a 69-s double die, 83 penny on copper ,a 43 copper, 82-d small date copper cent, of course which it never is.
one lady text bombs me daily with pictures of nothing ! (same type stuff as above) 1990-s no s pennies that are BU, and stuff lie that as well.
Yes, I know its not worth the copper its printed on, just wanted some clarification for future diagnosting. In the future I will keep it limited to non damaged, if possible
There does appear to be some slight doubling... but damage is so bad....Not sure it is worth submitting...Cheers, RickO
It's good for the simple reason it would be valid as a specimen of the variety. It won't make the social pages, but it is what it is.

I am sorry for being skeptical first ..... too many parking lot thread since I arrived
No worries - I poured the whole bottle
Another reason I do not have a cell phone.

It's die 3.
Even in this rough shape it would fetch a buck or two.
Quite a nice curculation find, @CoinscratchFever .
Nice eye and perseverance.
