Got a speeding ticket on the way home. Irritated so I went to the office and went thru a few rolls instead of kicking the cats or snapping at my darling.

Needles to say, OMG!

1972-P-1-DO-001-Lincoln-Memorial-Cent-Found-In-A-Roll

This has been a great box, this coin and a 1953-D RPM #1 I believe. Will post it shortly.

Have not checked die markers but I don't remember another one with this much separation on the date.

I have found two other 1972P DDOs roll searching. They are a #003 and #008 if I remember correctly.

Great finds! Hopefully the 1972-P DDO #1 will pay for the Speeding Ticket!

Great find!

Look right above the D of UNITED for a little tiny finger like projection from the rim downward.

Have Fun,
Bill
