I don't want to toss this one till I get an opinion from you guys. The doubling on the image of the obverse looks a lot like the DDO 62's I found. What do you all think ? DDO ?

This is the last year that the obverse master die that had been made in the early 1910's was used for the lincolns. In 1969, it was remade creating a sharper coin (comparable to the last time the die details were sharpened, in 1916). This coin has the typical "mushy" details of a mid to late 60's lincoln. Normal coin, no DDO IMHO.

Thank you ChildOfTheWheat. I know the 68's are are kind of chubby dated. Just needed to get someone else's opinion before moving it to the scrap pile. Thanks again.

The outside edge of the bust is showing machine damage during the strike of the coin. It is a copper coin if you are saving them.
