Ok so I have a confession to make! I sent pics of a 1966 P DDO a couple of weeks ago, only it was the wrong one. How can that be you might ask? Easy I have 19 of this particular Lincoln cent and was trying to get one that matched Variety Vista DDO-001. Well to make a long story short I am resubmitting what I think is the correct coin for your inspection. How did I get into this mess, simple I am gun-shy in sending in a DDO because I am usually wrong. I hate to be wrong, but as I am getting older I find out it's ok to make mistakes. And this is one tough crowd in the coin-collecting bunch! Anyway regards and as always let me know your thoughts. Have a nice day!

Well, This looks to be one of them. You can see this on the last '6 especially. Also note, the double eye lid. I have one to send in myself.

I see the extra width on the loop of the second 6, but I can't tell if that is circulation flattening or a doubled die. I'm interested to see what others think about this one.

This looks good for die #1.
There is a doubling step at the top of the U and bottom of the last T in Trust . The OP's photos are a bit blown out here but the steps are there. The outside curves of the S in Trust are elongated correctly as well.
Here is a pic of my example to compare to.
Excellent find !

I don't see it in the date so much but I think I see it in IGWT. Congrats if it turns out to be one!
