    I finally found a 1956 D I was happy with after searching over 3 years. Finally found one without old ugly brown and black toning. Someone else wanted it bad as I did but, I ended up with the winning bid.  I way over paid but Im fine with that. Hard telling how long till I found another. This was sure a hard date for me where Im limited on places to buy from.

    1831 Matron Head, Liberty Head Large Cent N-7 Another late-night end auction Ebay steal. I paid $28.00 for this coin. It is in VF25 BN condition and worth $115 graded. Winning.

    I am not sure if this is considered a World coin being the German background, or a US coin as they for a time were used as  "acceptable" currency in the US during the Civil War.

    1878-CC Morgan dollar, PCGS graded MS 62, upgrading an XF-AU example purchased decades ago. This is the first Morgan dollar I've purchased for several years--the prices are moderating somewhat--and, though somewhat more blemished than the photo suggests, is still nice for the grade.

    I wish I could say that I was eating crow for lunch, but as expected you do not have "the" DDO for this date.   If from one of the many you tube videos or facebook groups you have read how easy it is to find great treasures in your couch or pocket change you can pretty much forget all that because it just is not true.   I do not say that to discourage you from looking and having fun with collecting, it is possible to find some neat things in random change, just not life altering valuables like super rare DDO coins.

    I'm sorry if the previous replies appear harsh to you. 
       The obverse impression on the coin you posted does not resemble that of any other coin and does not appear to have been created during the manufacturing process. Someone may have taken a metal stamp or other hard object and impressed it into the coin by beating it with a hammer or squeezing it in a vise.  I see some swelling on the reverse portion of the eagle's right (facing) wing opposite the impression from the pressure, which would not occur if the impression had been created while that side was seated on the reverse die. Although it is possible for a struck coin to be struck multiple times (see https://www.error-ref.com/?s=multiple+strikes) or struck over another struck coin or planchet in the press (see, for, example, https://www.error-ref.com/?s=external+disc+impression), such pieces look nothing like the coin you posted.
       Apart from the impression, your coin does in fact have numerous nicks, scratches, and abrasions that would result in its being classified as damaged in any case. Please refer to the resources on grading to which I referred you in replying to one of your previous topics.
