    1925 S DDO

    Additional Information
    Variety: DDO
    Mint: San Francisco
    Coppercoins: 1DO-001

    Ops. on grade would be appreciated. The white streak on the reverse appears to be a foreign metal inclusion.

    Heavy obv die wear with weakness but I would say VF25 (because the reverse indicates the weakness isn't from circulation.)

    Very cool Roller!! VF25 looks good to me. The reverse looks so good though and the coin has very nice eye appeal.

    Really nice looking wheat Roller! Lots of nice detail, Lincoln's eye is the first thing that caught my eye! What do you mean about the foreign metal inclusion on the reverse, a struck through?

    ^^^^^^^
    THIS

    The reverse looks good with only a ding or two -- The obverse is weaker than the reverse.

    The '2' kinda looks like someone 'free-handed' it.

    Nice find.

    Nice find, one of my favorites to come across. VF is my guess. The 20's are always difficult because of worn dies.
    Even a fool can look wise if he keeps his mouth closed.

    That squiggle of light color metal through united.

    Very nice looking coin!
