1892S ddo morgan?

Could this old soapbox 1892s ef45 Morgan be a ddo?
I looked on vam world and I am not sure. The 8 doesn't look doubled to me but the 9 and 2 has something going on.
Any ideas?

I have never sent for pcgs crossover an old anacs soapbox holder but considering this coin was probably graded over 40 years ago and if the feedback I receive to this post believes it is a ddo, then I think I would.

    Could be a VAM, is not a DDO.

    I seriously doubt this will cross at 45. I would leave it as is.

    Don't think its either the Vam2 or 7. Should see some easily doubling in the top part of the 8 and the down doubling knob on the 2. The wear is a 45 easily but looks dipped heavily from photos.

    From the photos the coin looks cleaned.

    Is it an RPD?

    Check out Vamworld.com and look through the varieties. I'm sure it's there.

    @Ppp what do you think a DDO is? What specific ways does this coin match your definition?

    (There is nothing in your pictures that even hints at a DDO, so you must be referring to something different from the rest of us.)

    Looks rather harshly cleaned from photo. Seems quite fortunate to be straight-graded in an old ANACs holder.

    Thank you for your comments. I did look on vamworld. I too think the coin looks cleaned and ef45 was a generous grade. I stated that the 9 and the 2 looked as if something was going on. Maybe it isnt a ddo but an RPD or some type of damage or nothing, or……… thats why I created this post.
    Based on the comments i will keep the coin the way it is.
    Thank you again.
