    Found something similar on variety Vista. DDR 008. And it has to look exactly like the picture correct? And what does 8 r v111 mean underneath that. I'm thinking it's a die chip of course it is zinc so anything's possible oh one last question when you ladies and gentlemen look at coins that people submit, do you just look at their question or the whole coin. gracias IMG_20221019_170603126_HDR.jpg IMG_20221019_170121884_HDR.jpg

    Most will scrutinise the entire coin as well as reading the post. Seeing the coin gives an insight to its condition, how it has been treated in it lifespan, and also to possibly see pick up points (die markers, die scratches etc) to confirm an opinion.
    To opine on what you are showing here, you will need to provide a clearer close up image of seated Lincoln.
    The VV ref is, I think, as follows
    First number is the order they were filed
    Letter signifies Reverse
    Roman numerals is the class of doubling

    A close-up is needed but It is probably a plating blister. It does not look like DDR-008 at VV…imo…Spark
