    Take a look at the listing. I took a chance on an "apparent notch" on the lower right of the first 1 in the date. I couldn't pick out any other doubling. But, what the heck, it was only $0.99! I figured there was less than a 5% chance it was the DDO. It came today and there is ZERO doubt it's the DDO! SO PUMPED!!!

    Now that's a DDO I can get behind.
    I think it's even listed in the Red Book.

    I want to thank everyone for the kind words! The value isn't really important, but it is an awesome kicker. I'm just very proud of how far I've come in just a few years. This goes to show, if you work hard studying die varieties and the die making process, good things in this hobby will happen.
