1969 D Penny DDO? Looks Like A Close Spread To Me But I'm Still Just A Hobbyist

Well it does look interesting. On this one, I'm going to wait to see what more experienced folks have to say .
I'll add 2 things here.
1. It does look like split serifs on the date.
and
2. too bad the coin is covered with what appears to be fingerprints on the obverse.

I normally stay away from commenting on doubled dies but that definitely looks like a solid split serif on the 9s of the dates. I agree on the fingerprint, that's harsh I would try am acetone soak asap to see if you can clear some of it off without damaging the cent.

As for the doubling I will wait for the experts on this as well

Edit:acetone can remover the finger print but there may be a permanent imprint underneath due to the oils damaging the surface of the coin. You responded as I was replying lol.

Varietyvista mentions one known DDO, you can see if yours matches that one, but I can't quite tell, but your coin does indeed look promising.

Acetone will do nothing for your fingerprints, and neither will anything else. Sorry, but you're stuck with them on the surface of your coin. Never clean your coins. Never. And always handle them with cotton gloves to avoid fingerprints.

I agree your coin looks promising.

Did you search past posts here on CCF? Top left search box. Maybe there's something there.

Acetone won't do much for your coin, however, it isn't an evil substance when used intelligently. Any way you could take a few photos using a diffused light source--cutting down the glare just a bit? Would like to see more.

I believe what you are seeing is a result of light reflection and a severely worn out die. Your second set of pictures look totally different than your first set of pictures. The O in GOD is not doubled. If it was, you would see an increase in the size of this letter, not what it currently looks like. The thickness of the O seems to be cut in half which is not indicative of a doubled die. This die has been heavily braided as evidenced by the striations and polishing lines you can see. There also appears to be quite a bit flow lines, not typically seen on a copper Lincoln except under extreme magnification which can further make things look like something they are not (extreme magnification is not always your friend), which leads me to believe your coin is a result of Die Deterioration as well as lighting issues.

Let's wait for coop,but I do not think it is a DDO.
