I have some coins here in 2x2s and some loose. The ones in 2x2s have attribution numbers already the others I am not sure of so will periodically post pics in hopes the experts will chime in. Just want to try to get the keepers in 2x2s then junk the junkables (is that a word ) My images aren't the best but am trying to get as clear a shot as possible. All help is appreciated.

pea, I think that it is going to be hard to know for sure if this is a DDO, although that letter U in TRUST certainly looks promising. The date may be all circulation flattening--again hard to know. To help you with your research, here is a link to the 11 known DDOs for this year/mint:

Photos aren't bad, a little more focus and light.

It's hard to tell if it's circulation flattening or a DDO.

Tuff to tell with condition of coin. See if you can find any matches to known
DDO's and see if your coin has any die markers to go with.
The "U" looks more like it took a circulation hit.

Congrats on the find.
That 9 of the date, the U (TRUST), E(WE) are sure tell signs of a class 6 DDO.
An image of LIBERTY would be helpful as well.

You'll have to look at the following sites to determine which one until you can get some better images..
VV- http://varietyvista.com/01a%20LC%20...201944-S.htm
CC- https://coppercoins.com/diesearch.php
DD- http://doubleddie.com/712534.html

ps. I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest it might be 1DO-004 on the coppercoins site (CC above), which is also DDO-010 on Variety Vista (VV above).
