hello dustin43160

I could be wrong (not the first time) but I think it looks more like WDDO-003.

Either way excellent find/score.
Nice pictures too.

It is DDO-003. Note the die scratches on GOD.

The '2' is the 003 as well. So 008 still is eluding you.

Now you know what tells us that it is die 3 instead of 008. (008 is a bit stronger)

003 is the correct attribution. One other way to tell the difference besides the die scratches is in the letter W in WE. You can see doubling on the far right upright arm on the W on the 008, you cant on the 003. These are two from my collection. The first is the 008, the second pic is the 003.

My favorite date is 1972.

But I have only found 2 in the series both from Denver.
