This is a tough one! Lots of MDO on Obverse and lathe doubling on Reverse. Another E-bay score. But it has a few more things happen here starting with a Die Chip in B of Liberty R in trust has a nice notch IBE also shows minor notch I'm calling these MDO and doubling back of head. No scratch's thru N Cent as in CC . Maybe not! Still not sure! I bought thinking it was another -002 DDO seeing the Die Chip and only a few seconds left to bid.. Idont see anything over MS-63.

I don't think it's the die-2.

I think yours has some die cracks that arc over the VDB on the shoulder and another that goes from the bust to the rim below the VDB area. Not sure if those are ever on die-2 but that area often has cracks. I see similar cracks on many wheat cents.

I don't see it being 1DR-005 but you might show the TE of united since it would show on the tops.
Still, since they say it might be master, die doubling it could be similar on other dies.

That's what I said above I thought it could be MDO. And here is a photo of the T E I should of posted that.
002 I only saw the chip a toke a chance at it. Thanks appreciate your knowledge here.

Interesting, it does have some similarity to 1DR-005 on the TE. :)

Based on what I am seeing in your pics, I personally think it is the Master Die doubling for the date.

That's my coin on CC. I sent it in at it graded at MS64. Still one of my favorite coins
