Here are a few pics of early Lincolns for your comments..

From Left to Right: a pic of a 1909? ; a pic of a 1920? ; and 3 pics of a 1927?

Yes I know the resolution of my cheesy microscope stinks ... but take your best guess...

Here are my guesses:
1) 1909 - die deterioration or possibly machine doubling
2) 1920 - machine doubling
3) 1927 - extra thickness possibly a ddo

Any others want to venture an opinion?

1) not sure, could be mechanical
2) mechanical
3) Class 1 doubling

Just a guess

That 1909 looks like DDO1 for the P. But would need more markers.:)

Well we did not get too much participation on this idea...

Any way...

1909 is mechanical / strike
1920 is mechanical / strike

and ..

1927 is DDO-001 ( in G )
