Came across this 1964 Lincoln Cent. Is this a DDO? Or an SMS?

When I first saw it, it stood out from the rest of the pennies like a Proof. It's not a Proof, but I did a little research and it has the possibilities of being an SMS 1964 cent with a nice satin finish and sharp strikes. It certainly looks different than most pennies. Even though it's not in a mint set, there's a chance mint sets have been separated over time for whatever reason.?

Also. I do have a 1964 Mint Set. What should I look for to see if I may have an SMS or something special?

Your input pretty please.

What thickness, separation or nothcing are you seeing to make you think it might be a DDO?

And not likely an SMS coin, especially since the steps are not struck very well. There are markers for the SMS coins but I'm not familiar with them.

OK I see what you're saying about the steps on reverse so it's not an SMS.

I'm surprised you can't see the thickness on the obverse as a possible DDO. I am uploading a couple of more pics for your review. Thank you in advance
