I used a white coffee filter,more then one layer- cut it to fit over the LED lights on my cheap AmScope and I used caps to cover all but one bulb on my Celestron scope.

You might try two layers to dim it more if needed, or rice paper, or thin white paper. Just to cut the glare.

Your first set of images looks like a DDO to me.
LIB looks to have thickness. the L I are almost touching and the centers of the B are very small.
Something about the 82 looks promising as well. It might be lighting but it looks like a notch on the top right of the foot of the 2. The irregularities to the top of the 82 might just be metal flow issues though.

Someone mentioned looking for markers, but DoubledDies.com has more die pairs.

Your last images seem to show a die scratch going almost due east from the top of the L and ending just above the R. This seems to match one of the die scratches on the WDDO-001. If the die scratch does match, I would say yours is an earlier stage and was made before the one in the DD images.
Compare yours to WDDO-001 images and let us know what you think.
