Confused about double die

Hello all,

I have a 1968 shinny Lincoln cent, and as the title say's, I'm very confused about double die.

The 1968 looks huge compared to other cents from the 60s and sticks out further. Would this constitute as double die?

I'm not trying to be lazy, and have done a lot of reading, but nothing really explains it in laymans terms.

Thanks.

Ah, scratch that, I think I've figured it out. As long as there is a line going through the date in its natural motion, then I can assume its a DD...?

 

#1: Not a DDO. Date for 1968 is normal.

#2: It is a DoubleD Die.

 

I've searched and can't find the definition for DoubleD die
