I found this in a circulated bankroll, from a bank box of U.S. Pennies. Is this 1DO-008?

Who thinks it would benefit from an acetone bath or soak?

John1, I think it would. I already gave it one Acetone soak, but maybe another soak would do it maybe?

Thank you Jim0815! When I get the chance, I'll do another Acetone soak, and see if it helps.

I'd say yes due to the fact that the lower loop of the 2 was actually enlarged and not just slightly shifted. Nice find indeed!

Tougher call on this one. The 'U' looks like the 003, the rest looks like 008?
1972-P-Lincoln-Memorial-Cent-1-DO-008?-Did-I-Correctly-Attribute-It?
So it the coin is covered with something on the 'U' it might be 008. Maybe a mineral oil bath?
(Maybe being an earlier die state may affect them differently?

Chronoswiss, thank you very much for posting that image! I figured it out, and it's 1DO-008!
