Tough call on this one. The contact mark on the EPU makes it hard to tell for sure. The marker appears to be a match, but that is a common area for die chips. The die wear on the UNUM looks a bit different. But keep it for now. Coin contact changes the real shape of the hub doubling. The die crack on the head look correct. But could you show us an image of "OF". there is some markers there?

Read a day or so ago that one of the first places to look for DDO on wheat cents is the dots on EPU. Does look to be elongated on this one which corresponds with a DDO. Other experts should weigh in for sure.

Thanks for the input-yea this one has me perplexed now as well because I can't for the life of me see the die markers above OF-is it possible to have the properly placed die chips and die crack and not be it or more possible for the die markers above OF to have worn? Hmmm I was gonna 2x2 this one but now not so sure...

If everything else is okay, I think it's okay to just have most of the markers. With contact marks and wear it's tough to verify a lot of heavily circulated coins.

Yes I think so coin masters plus I'm guessing maybe an earlier die state that's not showing the markers above OF

Maybe, those are the thickest wheat stems I've ever seen.
