I just took delivery of a very nice set of memorial lincolns.
Considering the price, some lovely toned and high grade pieces, and the fact that it came with a ms64+ 1970 S small date, I knew it was a great deal. I checked over each coin for DD's and RPM's and sure enough scored a beauty of a 1963 that matches the doubling and die markers for 1DO-007 perfectly!
Today's my lucky day!

Congrats on your nice find!
One thing about the die numbers used here...
If you announce a 1963P-1DO-007, there's no need to mention "DDO" in the die number. That's what the "DO" in the die number stands for.
It's sort of like saying "ATM machine" where the "M" stands for "machine", thus saying "ATM machine" is like saying "automatic teller machine machine".
It's important to note this detail, especially when selling the coins found. Using the die system as published removes all doubt as to what you have and it makes it a lot easier for novice collectors to grasp what you're talking about.
But again....nice find!
