I won this this 1972 P LMC DDO-003 in a tropicalbats contest last year and decided to post this beauty. I have the 003, 006 and stage B 008. Out of all the DDO's that I have this is one of my favorites.

The die state is early so that is probably why you like this one better. Die state makes a big difference. Keep in mind that the images below are of a different die number. (DDO-002) I didn't have the earlier die state of the 003 prepared. When I find examples of earlier die states, I same them.
An earlier die state is more desirable looking coin because of the fresher die state. (Also having a BU example, compared with a circulated example)
Note the spread area on the centers of the devices.
1972-P-LMC-DDO-003-One-Of-My-Favorites.
This is still a very nice die state coin, but note what how it compares with an EDS example:
1972-P-LMC-DDO-003-One-Of-My-Favorites.
1972-P-LMC-DDO-003-One-Of-My-Favorites.
1972-P-LMC-DDO-003-One-Of-My-Favorites.
Here is the second set of images of the bit later die state:
1972-P-LMC-DDO-003-One-Of-My-Favorites.
1972-P-LMC-DDO-003-One-Of-My-Favorites.
1972-P-LMC-DDO-003-One-Of-My-Favorites.
Can you see the differences? It is like the images are more in focus.

Thank you Mr. Coop and Coinfrog! Mr. Coop there are several reasons why this one is one of my favorites. Being an earlier die state is just one of them.

Lol Mr. Coop. If my old memory serves me correctly you had to send a pm with the heading that read a certain way. I think it took me like three tries!
