I recently came across a number of 1943 Lincoln wheat cents with Cuds, die cracks and doubled dies. As time permits I am going to post them for comments, as I believe many are unlisted.

Looks like a possible DDR. Might check out 1DR-001 shows to have a similar die crack on the obverse. Thanks, Doug.

edit: I could be wrong, but the dots look oval and some devices in EPU seem to have extra thickness. Can't make out any other markers.

I saw it looked like a DDR when photographing it. Took a pic of the first dot at that time but the rest of it just didn't look strong enough to be listed.

After looking at your suggestion, I believe you may be onto something. THANKS!

UNUM is not as strong as the CC example and wish there example showed more of the obv die crack. Though some of the other devices seem to show added thickness, I'm not 100% convinced its a die match yet.

Can you make out any of the other markers in hand? If not I'll check around for other examples for comparison. Thanks, Doug.

How about the die scratch NE of the Y in LIBERTY and the small bits around the eyelid?
