Thanks everyone. Finally settling in for the night after a busy weekend show.
Thanks for the insight on potential mintage for this variety TB. 14,734 proofs were minted and I'm not sure if they all sold. I think I've read that about 2,000 coins minted per die pair is a fair guess. I'm speculating here, but there may have been 7 die pair (14%).
I feel fortunate to have spotted it and won't rule anything out once it's back from ANACS with the proper attribution.
ps. It must be fairly scarce if you haven't come across one with all your finds.

Please let us know what ANACS labels it as,thanks. Thanks and I sure will. I was told it may be 6-8 weeks before I get my submission back from ANACS.   Here are some more images highlighting what I picked up on with this class 6 DDO. The die crack over VDB and the irregular die gouges along the edge of the vest under the bow tie in the first group of images are the markers that matched. ps. I just noticed some apparent notching on the SE corners of RTY so this might technically have a second type of doubling as well.    Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

John1, sure will.
I was surprised by the amount of time as well since the FUN show was the only other show since the year end break.

Update: I received the coin back from ANACS and it was attributed as DDO-001 with the same 63 RB grade as the original holder. I took no chances and let them crack it out. The upward curve on the foot of the E of WE makes it easy to see this as a class 6 variety. For those interested, the fee was only about $18.00 for the variety to be added even though it was already in a slab. I hand-delivered my submission to the ANACS rep but can't remember about the shipping fees. PP55   Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

Thanks GC, E&V, CF & TB.
It was fun going through the submission and reacquainting myself with them.
I got a couple of other nice surprises in the submission & a couple of disappointments as well.

Man I have a long ways to go. LOL. I studied these pictures and I don't see anything different. I will probably miss something as I go through a huge thing of pennies my grandma collected from waitressing when she was still working. Nice find OP and great eye as I still can't see it even with the arrows.

Thanks and you're welcome John1 and Hail24. Hail24, probably one of the easiest devices to see this type of doubling (class 6) on this coin is the bottom right horizontal bar of the E of WE. It curls up at the tip like an elves shoe. (In the image below Will Farrell has this one beat!) The bottom part of the U of TRUST is noticeably thicker than the two sides as well.
