@DIMEMAN That is also what I thought and here it is designated as DDO. Plus it doesnt have the characteristics in the neckline as the DDO variety for the date. Crazy!
After comparing this coin with mine, which is stage B with clashing in front of face....this is either MD or EDS without clashing. It could have come from a DDO die and then got the MD at striking. There are varieties like this. Hope this helps.
Not sure what you are talking about on the neck line. Do you have a pic of that?

Yep....MD.
@DIMEMAN Than this would be also correct?

Also MD.

I don't think that is the DDO. The date does not look right.
