See pics. I don't know what I have here, if anything. Possibly an RPM or a DDO, but I'm not sure what variation. There are so many die scratches/gouges/chips that I can't narrow it down. Any help is appreciated.

That is classic MD which was very common on the 1969 cents minted in San Francisco. This page tells more about it and shows some very nice examples of it: http://www.lincolncentsonline.com/1...20Cents.html

Yes that is MD. I had about 8 of those on reverse of 1982's..... Imagine my excitement in with the first one. Cooper said they were MD and looks same as this.

Curious what the reverse looks like. Wondering if the Memorial's roof is still attached or polished away floating? Thanks, Doug.

Just a heavy die polishing that removed the upright of the room. Die abrasion. Just like the fading 'FG'.
