Searched 4 boxes of Canadian cents over the last week and this is my best US cent from the bunch.

It is a 1968D DDO. After checking out Coppercoins site it appears to be either 1968D-1DO-01, 1968D-1DO-02 or 1968D-1DO-03. The issue I'm having is that I can not match any of the other markers to any of the listed die pairs on the site. Here are a few pics. First time trying this microscope so we will see how it does. I hope they turn out. I have to figure out the range for getting focus on a large area as it is a bit touchy.

IN GOD:
1968-D-DDO?

WE:
1968-D-DDO?

TRU:
1968-D-DDO?

Lets see if I can get the pics for comparison.

An overlay confirms the 1968D-1DO-001 for mint mark location.
Seems like the doubled dies look like Machine Doubling but are not. Note the enlarging of the devices to tell for sure.
These are not from the same doubled die, but from the same year of Philly DDO's

Thank you coop. I could not verify any of the other listed markers. I was thinking maybe mine could be LDS as it seems some of the motto has less separation to the rim.
