Would health have anything to do with it? I recall years ago seeing a 4300gram female Normal at an expo where the owner was trying to sell her for only $20, significantly less than what a female that size would normally go for. Turns out she was a WC with a scar a few inches long on her stomach. The seller said she hadn't produced the prior season. At least she was honest.

Those are import animals carrying traits which may or may not be genetic (i.e., "dinkers"). They are giving their customers the best shot at using their own judgement about whether or not it's worth the time to invest in traits that may or may not be inheritable.

While I can already ID it at 90% markers that Eric has mentioned just confirm identification, now not all OD are equal when it comes to markers, kind of like het pied some are very subtle in single gene OD (unless you know what to look for and have produced OD), in some multiple gene combos those markers no longer exist making OD in some combos very hard to detect.
Also to note that because one may have a normal looking animal with train track does not mean the animal is OD or het pied obviously those work in combination of other factors, and sometime a normal is just a normal no matter what the belly looks like.

You never said what you bought it as... Personally I think it looks more like an enchi, but without more photos we can't tell anything definitively.
