While I was looking through a roll this morning, this coin jumped out at me. Is this what I think it is?

I've tried to show a closer view of the ear lobes.

The actual lobe is normal in size. A design mark on the ear makes it look separated but was the design that year.

I've looked at 20+ other 1988 coins and they are all the same. Something is different about the extra ear lobe bottom on this coin.
Rest in Peace

You very well may be able to see something that we are not picking up from your photos. But from the photos it doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary.

Your coin does not look like a DDO to me.
