1972 DDO Lincoln....Die #2 or #3 or a mixture of the two.

I found this coin in a roll, and have been looking on the CopperCoins.com website (awesome site btw) and can't really decide on which die this is. I think I have high hopes for this one, but it might be because it's my coin. These are the best pics I could get to right now.

The "IGWT" is doubled, as is the "LIBE" in LIBERTY.

    The die is either #2 or #7. Hard to tell without pictures of the date.

    Correct. It is most certainly NOT the money version (i.e. it is NOT Die #4 - OR Die #1 for that matter).

    In case anyone doesn't know - Die #4 is worth FAR MORE (2-3 times is conservative) than the common (yet valuable) Die #1.

    Looks like Die #2 to me but need to see the date.

    Yep looks like die 2 or 7 (I think probably die 7).
    If you see a small raised bump on the lips it's die 7.
