So Im checking the change in my labcoat pocket as Im leaving work.........

and I notice a 1955 Lincoln. I took a closer look and another and another. Perhaps a had a 1955 DDO on my hands here?? As it turns out, it certainly doesnt look like it after further examination after a few quick pics. Oh well. Here is the coin just for the heck of it.........

    Not a DDO, but still a great find. Great pic also!

    I see a small die crack on the bust where the vdb is from rim up into the bust and extends I. The bust to the right. Maybe it's a small cut mark in the die unsure but it was noticable to me
