So this coin, the king of the Lincoln Memorial Cents DDO's, The 1972 P DDO-001 I found in circulation approximately 4 years ago, I am showing it so the new people in our hobby of collecting coins, that it is possible to find really great coins without having to purchase them. I remember when I found this wonderful cent how excited I was. I showed the coin right away on the communityt website and there were a frw doubters (I know a group made copies) but I found a tell (small mark from rim over the D on United on the reverse) so I carried the coin to the local coin shop and they said definadely a DDO-001. I took some new pics so take a look and good hunting! Regards all and Happy New Year.

Now that is definitely a cool circulation find that I am still looking for
Years ago, I found a 1972 DDO#3 in my dad's pocket change and that is the closest I have found personally

I thought Bobby posted one of these this past summer. Stating his friend had found it at a garage sale of some sort.
