I Usually don't care for nickels but I am looking through a bunch of mint sets that I have kicking around. I just wanted to get y'alls opinion on this.

This appears to be a DDO-006 (Varityvista) but the mint mark isn't necessarily matching well. Everything else does. Does that mean this might not be the DDO I am thinking of? (Adding the LIB pic for matching purposes)

Thoughts?

For a Doubled Die - "Everything" has to be matching because the coins have all been minted by the same die.

nope, not a match (thanks for making me go and do the research that you already did) the MM is in a different location and looks completely different.

Next time please also include a link to the attribution you think it may be.
Here is the VV DDO-006 (which it does not match.):

I'm not seeing any split serifs - it may just be MD here.

I agree. Not a match. Everything has to match. It can't be similar.
