So far I have not been able to positively identify this ddr.
The wear and lack of markers make the task more difficult.
I think it is down to a choice. Either 1945 1c 1-R-VI as in 'The Lincoln Cent Doubled Die' by John A. Wexler, or
1945P-1DR-003 Class 2+5 at coppercoins.com.
The throat on this Lincoln is obscured by corrosion, so identifying a die clash is not quite possible. However the dots in EPU look similar in shape and direction, and the wheat stems are wide.
Or, there might be another choice I have missed altogether.
Thanks for checking,
Jean
