LincolnCentMeHere Pillar of the Community United States 558 Posts	Posted 01/10/2016 11:12 pm There are at least 9 different DDO errors for this year/cent. I can see clearly the dd in the date and some of the In God We Trust. But I have no idea how to distinguish what DDO this one is. Please tell me how I can differentiate between the different DDO errors for the 1972. Report this Post to the Staff
