Thank you Mark! I got very lucky in that roll too. I bought it from a very reputable seller on ebay that sells truly OBW rolls. I am pretty sure it is WDDO-003 which I have never found before.

It looks like DDO-003.

You need to check for die markers.

Nice find!

Thank you cwb. I will check for the die markers to confirm it. I do see that little bump on the 2 in the date which makes me believe it's DDO-003, but will check die markers to make sure.

Thank you OldjoeClark and spruett001! I checked the die markers and it is DDO-003 and it's in a Late Die State because I found the matching markers for its stage. This die was definitely close to the end of its life. Doubling is mushy. :)

Thank you! You are right Crazyb0! I am slowly starting to complete my 1972 DDO's. I now have DDO-003, 005, 006, 007, and 008! I have only bought one DDO on ebay. That was DDO-008. That means I have found most of them myself already. I will eventually complete the DDO set from 1972!

Thank you moxking and cookiemonster! I just keep getting lucky most of the time and this was a big surprise from the roll. Best BU find from a OBW roll. This proves that that they're still out there in OBW BU rolls. So they haven't been all picked through. :)

I have many OBW rolls that I've never looked through . I wonder what could be lurking inside them ?

T-BOP, who knows, anything could be inside of them. It will remain a mystery until you open them which leaves great opportunity to great finds. You might find Doubled Dies you have never found before. If you find anything good, please post it here. There could be many things lurking in those OBW rolls T-BOP.
