There is no listing for this on Variety Vista.
http://www.varietyvista.com/01e%20L...Listings.htm
Coppercoins has no listing for that year/mint DDR.
Wexler shows two DDR's for that year on that area. So you might check this link out?

Not sure which one you have, or if it is a new one?

I can't get the closeup to enlarge but your appears to be similar to WDDO-001 (based on the shape of the holes in the B).

You'll need to confirm markers for a confirmed match.

I agree it looks most like the first one. I looked for the markers, but my coin is somewhat corroded, and I don't have the experience needed to tell if I'm seeing a match or just corrosion and wear. Here are the best pictures I could get of what should be the most telling area:

You could have both. Machine Doubling and a DDR? What is the difference on the incuse devices of the EPU?

So the markers might be more help to see if any match? Make side by side images of these affected areas to see if you can see match or not there. (Of course different die states can also figure in on this issue)

A correction is required here since I noticed my error too late to edit my reply.

My reply should have read "WDDR-001".

Thanks for that correction Mr. Pete! I was so terribly confused for a bit. (well not really - my mind had 'auto-corrected' your typo)

So, is this a DDR? or not? I'm on the fence here for this one.

Glad I caught and corrected it Dearborn.

IMHO and given the overall shape of the LB, it looks like a match to WDDR-001.
An image of the top of the shield with the light coming from K12 (12:00) might make the die chips visible and confirm absolutely.
