Jim, I think you are correct! My overlay matches Coppercoins Die 010 and does not match Coppercoins 003. I will email you my overlays, but please tell me what you think about my other findings:
1. Coppercoins Die 010 - the first zero looks more narrow, and Coppercoins Die 003 looks wider and more rounded
2. I could not find any Coppercoins 010 die markers, so perhaps my coin is an earlier die state (photos attached showing no markers) I took these photos with LED lights on because it seems to show die cracks and scratches better.

Well I noticed that CCs 003 http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/d...&die_state=mds and 010 http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/d...&die_state=mds both cross ref to Wexlers WDDO-004 http://doubleddie.com/303301.html either that is an error on CCs site or they are the same die??? However I can say that I did match a marker between Viviens - CCs 003 and Wexlers 004 - There is a die dot due east of Abes eyebrow that appears on all 3 coins so at this point I would say Viviens is CCs 003/Wexlers 004 and most likely an earlier die state... That die dot and the distortion on the 2, as Jon pointed out, will be the clincher for me!!!

Strange that they both cross.
I remember Murph found 3 and quite a bit later I found 10.
We traded so we both had a bunch of both. I always thought they are different and his 3 was a bit stronger than 10.
Never sure, they are very similar.

When I found the 010, I had a brick and it had almost 600 of them, 12 solid rolls, like a record for one variety from a brick.
I sold them all and kept one roll of the best coins plus one that I thought was the best coin and it graded MS68 red from ANACs. I have a 67 red 03 from ANACs. They look different to me, 03 is stronger. I've never tried to compare markers.

The other funny thing was I was on a work trip and picked up the brick at Chase in PA. I saw the DDOs through the holes in the box because there were several with end coins that were 10.
When I flew back the TSA guy looked at my bag and asked what the brick was. I told him a bunch of cents and he asked why are you bringing them.
I opened it when I got home. It also had over 6 rolls of 012s.
It was cherry picking paradise.
12 rolls of die 10 and 6 of die 12s.
That was probably the brick ever. :)

Wow!! Those are some crazy numbers on the 003, 010 and 012's. I would probably have a heart attack if I ran across something like that!!

I almost did.
A few of my co-workers started buying bricks on ebay after I told them.
06 was a strange year, there was a 3-4 month period of tons of DDOs. If you could get P bricks they often had DDOs.

Ed, thank you for your help as well! I am so glad that you pitched in because I knew you were smack dab in the middle of finding these 2006 discoveries! Congrats for finding your discoveries and sharing the cool stories that went with it! I'm like Jon, I cannot fathom finding as many 2006's as you did in rolls!
Okay, going back to look at this Abe again, also going back to check my other 2006's for possible mistakes! Obviously my overlay's leave a lot to be desired :tinysmile_cry_t:
