Looks kinda doubled die to me. You might want to check in varityvista.com. but check it a0s a 1968 "S" The ear is nothing IMHO
Look at the field. Many many scratches. That will kill any coin. No matter what. MS 68 is harder to find then a perfect husband
Heres what I am seeing/hearing...its an opinion, all of yours are more experienced then me, I believe. None the less, an opinion, and they are differing. So, due to this differing, I am going middle ground. Okay, I get it, not a PERFECT COIN, I still may have it graded so I can get a personal feel for pcgs grading, win or lose. Then, I'll know the quality of my nice coins. As far as doubling, I can still market it as 'possible' DDO, and not be misrepresenting. Anybody buying DDOs should be able to make up their own OPINION if it is or it isnt, right? Just like we are. It SURE LOOKS right to several of us, some it doesnt. When pcgs grades it, will they confirm with their OPINION? LOL You guys are all awesome, thanks everybody for chiming in, this has been very interesting, more to come. Anybody ever looking for an assistant, let me know, I LOVE THIS STUFF, I so wish I had done this as a youngster....thanks again!#
The MM position is to low to be DDO-001 It is up to you if you want to send it or not but the 8 looks like MD. And so does the MM.
