Well, I may have found an ubuntu post that helped answer my question/solve my problem:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/227924/sd-card-cloning-using-the-dd-command
states:
Insert the original sd card and check the name of the device (usually mmcblkX or sdcX):
sudo fdisk -l In my case the sd card is /dev/mmsbkl0. Now you have to unmount the device:
sudo umount /dev/mmcblk0 Now to create an image of the device:
sudo dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=~/sd-card-copy.img This will take a while.
Once it's finished, insert the empty sd card. If the device is different (USB or other type of sd card reader) verify its name and be sure to unmount it:
sudo fdisk -l sudo umount /dev/mmcblk0 Write the image to the device:
sudo dd if=~/sd-card-copy.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 Those directions appear to have made a .img file using my Fedora 25 machine; however, I have not tried to write that image to a micro sd card to test it.  Waiting until that's required!
