    "IF" it is not MS....
    crappy edit function here, and there needs to be a delete post button.

    If you're sending it to PCGS, and
    you want the RPD on the tag, you
    need to write that with a permanent
    marker on the submission flip itself,
    or it won't get that designation.

    Thank you for telling me that. I was worried they'd screw it up and leave it off the holder. I also wrote it on the form itself. In all the coins I researched, this is the only off-center MPD FS-301. I'm pretty excited.

    On the form is good, but
    for this type of situation,
    also put in on the 2.5 x 2.5
    submission flip.

    Neat coin, got a lot going on there, uncentered broadstrike (not off-center), PMD, strong double clash marks on both sides, die crack on the reverse, and some Longacre doubling, possibly a die chip in the hair and either a die crack or lamination through the R in AMERICA.

    There is no PMD.

    Sorry that should have been MPD.

    Well, now it's the finest known FS-301 at PCGS. AND the only off-center FS-301!
    They took away the 10% off-center and deemed it 5%. But no matter. Unique is unique!

    Nice coin and congrats on the grade and uniqueness of it.

    Could they have added your name to the label? Just thinking what else we can put on it.:woot:

    In my opinion it is now in an error slab, because it isn't an off-center. Uncentered broadstrike.

    It's missing the denticles
    on the right side, so it's
    off center, not an uncentered
    broad strike.
