What do you think? Isolated MD, Die Deterioration? I cannot see any other type of doubling, other than maybe some ejection doubling on UNITED.

Thanks for looking.
Jon.

Definite separation with nice detail/
Being located in the center of the design, it seems like a strong possibility.

Edit:
This one looks LDS. Gotta add that if that is some doubling over Abe's left shoulder it might be Die Deterioration.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

That's the direction I'm leaning, it just had nice separation.

I meant to add that the majority of doubled die listings are proofs and involve the FG as being doubled.

My first thought is DDD and second thought is MD.

Thanks for checking it out everybody! I was leaning towards Die Deterioration the whole time but found out on the Lincoln Cent Forum, that it is more than likely a doubled die. Will Brooks, who is the "Die and Design Expert", chimed in and so did Bob Piazza, who worked for cc as an attributor for several years. It turns out that Bob had actually had it listed as 1DR-001 at one point but got replaced by a proof doubled die in later years.

Well that is good to hear and you got it straight "from the horses mouths" (and you didn't even have to send it in. LOL)
It's nice to have an authority chime in with info like Bob did.
Congrats.

Thanks, man! Yeah, pretty cool that Bob found this decades ago and called it out as a doubled die. I may send it to Doctor Dan at doubleddie when they start doing attributions again.
