I found this 1972 cent last night, I think it is a DDO: I'd love other opinions. The coin's condition is worse than I would have hoped, but it is still a cool find if it is the real McCoy.

It looks like die #2 but die #7 is really close too. Is there a die dot in Lincoln's lips? If there is it is die #7.
Great find!

Thanks Coop that helped me determine that it is, as I had hoped, the 002 variety. It is uncanny how similar those examples are, but the "L" and "R" in LIBERTY nailed the differentiation for me, and my coin was very clear in that regard.
