NOT a DDO, just Machine Doubling. Spend it.

It is a DDO but try to take your pics straight on instead of such an angle. We'll get it figured out. It's either the 003, 006,or 008. Also provide full pics of the obverse and reverse please. I am strongly leaning to the 003 because of the 2 of the date.

Machine Doubling shows as flat and irregular.

I have the 001, 003, 006, 007, 008 and the 009. So rest assured, you have a legitimate DDO.
