I have a 1968s Lincoln coin. I'm new to value but have been collecting all my life. This coin looks like a DDO to me on the MM and Date but is it of value?

to CCF. We would need close up pics to see if it a DDO or MD. If the date and mint mark are doubled it is most likely MD. MD has no premium.

@SHABRI, first welcome to CCF. Second, when I enlarge and enhance your pic, I don't see any doubling although the image is pretty pixelated. As mentioned by @john1, a close-up pic would help us to see what you've got there. There may be a couple die chips around the mintmark.

If the flattening is the same on the date direction and the mint mark, it sounds like Machine Doubling. But we need to see a lot closer what is you have.
