2.56 Grams Does anyone think this is a DDO/R ? Look at the S,D,O,G,the A and M in America. Thanks in advance.

No. Those 82's were used until they were about to fall apart! You find a lot of thick lettering because of that.

I agree - No DDO/DDR... This is a 1982P Large Date Plated Frankenzinc... Remember in mid 1982 is when the mint switched from a solid Lincoln to the plated... That is why this one is 2.56 grams... There were all kinds of problems with the plated Lincolns in the early plating years due to contamination between the zinc core and plating that is why yours has so many bubbles... Hope that helps a little!!!
