Appears to have two divided serifs top and bottom which I'd assume DDD but not finding a clear match on CC site.

I only see an RPM not a DDD.

Hi John, see if you can see what I think are two divided serifs...the top serifs are also double divided. It looks like a foot with 3 toes
Thx

Maybe this is the 002 D/D/D?...just can't locate the die crack markers. The line up seem legit...http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/dies...ie_state=mds

BUT...when you look at the coin example on the CC site the upper serif(s) pull away from the coin. On my coin it's the Bottom Serif(s) that appear "pulled away" from the coin?

Here you will see what I'm thinking: the coin on top (mine) has a distinctive draw west on the bottom serif. The bottom coin is from coppercoins.com ( all credit given to coppercoins.com, it is being used for comparison and educational purposes, I do not own this image). This Bottom coin has a "draw" outward at the upper serif. Must not be the same coin. I'm still convinced though I see 3 toes at the north and south serif suggestion DDD on my coin.
Opinions? More pics?

Keep in mind, the ones listed are strong examples. I agree that this is a RPM, but probably a minor one that is not listed. It is not 002. Note the upper and lower serif areas. They are shaped differently.

Thanks for looking. As I noted in my earlier post I recognized it wasn't the 002 and I noted the differences, that was my puzzle since this DDD wasn't listed. This coin must be too minor to note.

I still save all minor RPMs and Doubled Dies hoping that someday they might be listed by someone. So I sit on them for now.
