Please let me know your thoughts about the possible DDR. There is thickening at the heads of the wheat stalks that detail is not captured by the image.

Thanks.

Nice die crack on the head. A possible start of a lam on the bust,
Can you get a better pic of the dot between the E and P?

This is about the best I can do. The dot is dramatically elongated compared to the dot between the S and U.

The elongated dot could be due to an old circulation hit that squashed it.

Looks like the reverse is a DDR. Note the devices on the left half are larger than the devices on the right side of the EPU area. Closer images of the EPU might show more spread than what we can see from the long range shot. Micro shots with a single light source would be more helpful. (The single light source will allow light and shadows. It makes the doubled dies to show better with just one light source)
