    Hello,
    This is my first post to CoinTalk, so please forgive/correct any of my protocol errors, as well as my somewhat "new-ness" to coin collecting. Since starting a few months ago, I've become addicting, most particularly in searching for error coins. I'm well versed on the difference between machine doubling and doubled dies, though I still have difficulty telling them apart from some of the die deteriorated coins. I just went through my latest bag of wheat penny's and found a few I'd like to verify or get opinions/corrections on. First up, a 1936P Lincoln Cent that I believe is a DDO (though I've been hopeful/wrong sooo much over the past few months!). Still, this demonstrates many of the identifiers I've researched for this coin - the date, certain letters in the motto and liberty, as well as the thin "R" leg...so I'm asking for any and all thoughts/opinions to help me step up my learning curve with these! I'm attaching the photos - several different views - and I'll reply to this with a few more. Thank you in advance!!

    It is not Die #1, nor Die#2, I don't think it is die #3 either, but I can't say definitively due to the wear and photo of the lettering such as "TRUST" . A few letters look like they could be, other like they are not, so I would be leaning towards not.
    Welcome to the forum!
