IN this work, we perform a full amplitude analysis of the process $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to J/\psi D\overline{D}$, where $D$ refers to either $D^0$ or $D^{+}$. A new charmoniumlike state $X^{*}\left(3860\right)$ that decays to $D\overline{D}$ is determined with a significance of $6.5\sigma$. Its mass is $\left({3862}_{-32}^{+26}{}_{-13}^{+40}\right)\mathrm{MeV}/c^2$, and its width is $\left({201}_{-67}^{+154}{}_{-82}^{+88}\right)\mathrm{MeV}$. The $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ hypothesis is favored over the $2^{++}$ hypothesis at the level of $2.5\sigma$. The analysis is based on the $980{\mathrm{fb}}^{-1}$ data sample collected by the Belle detector at the asymmetric-energy $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ collider KEKB.
