Standard issue ear, and certainly not DDO-001.

+1. I see no difference it that ear from any others issued for Lincoln cents that year.

ok. first off thanks for the link. the diagnostics are very helpful. that being said, I checked and can see all the other markers. will post pics tomorrow night to compare with those on the link. My cam damera ran out of juice on me just now! GRRrrrr.

here are some close-ups to compare with those on the link.

 

It has some similar marking, but those markers are "fingerprints" and they have to be identical. Besides, the ear isn't doubled; that's the big marker.

 

I don't see anything.
