This coin is MD'd for sure; is that a 2nd eyelid? Arrows point to eyelid?

Looks like it might be an 006?

I'm sorry an 005? Same die crack though eye area, and has several die cracks from right wheat on reverse. Don't see a die scratch from the "T" on reverse, but possible die gouge near the rim to the southeast of the 6 in the date and above WE TRUST. Light NW-SE die scratches in the field behind the neck.

Try matching markers on 007...it is definitely not 005.

"I take it" you think I have a 2nd eyelid. Here are photos of the marker areas for 1956D-1DO-007. Sort of see the marker die scratches in 1st photo, but Nothing around the "L" in LIBERTY. Sort of see the die scratch between the "T" and "R" of TRUST and reverse the short die scratch protrudes from the upper left wheat tip. Not sure I see anything west of the "T" in CENT.

With the close up image of the eyelid I see more die flow than an extra eyelid. (Last image in the first set.) Sorry. I've seen these before.

I would mark it as questionable and save it to show to someone else to see what they think.

My old botany prof would say, no flow'em no grow'em. Now if I had a Lincoln Penny with a patch over the eye how could I tell if it was a DDO?

This is a much nicer coin than mine. Everything's bolder without all the marks. Thank you for posting it!
