Just found a very nice 06-P DDO. 
Looks like 1DO-015, might even be the same with a different rev but I doubt it. It has nice doubling on all letters of LIBERTY & the date making it wide on the top, maybe slight on the beard.
I doubt it's 15, it has none of the obv markers. No crack to the W of WE. The rev doesn't have the bump on top of the 1st column like die 15. It has a big crack going east from the top of the 4th column and a big crack from the rim through the E of cent so if it's die 15 it has a different rev.
Nobody could miss the rev cracks, anyone see this one before?
I'll take some pics when I get time

Ohhh... Figured it out 
This is 1DO-020 but to me the doubling on liberty looks stronger than the pics on the site. The thing that proved it's 1DO-020 is the crack from the rim through the E of cent. I initialy thought this looks much stronger than 20 but after seeing the crack on 20 I looked again and thats it.
Aren't we lucky that most dies have markers

ED, the markers are a blessing, in that they make it very easy to ID a coin. Without them we are reduced to two things: Triangulation, or "guesstimates". Of course one can send it to some one else, and let them do the work! "The fun is in the chase"! Personally, I enjoy a challenge. Have a nice day!
