The dies were actually made in Philadelphia and then shipped to Carson City. Once at Carson City a Mint employee would add the CC mint mark to...
It is a pretty neat DDO that is mated with 3 different reverses.
@Treashunt there are 3 unattributed raw examples of this one on eBay right now. All three are the FS-102 which has the same reverse as the above...
It looks like MD to me.
That's a pretty nice find!!
I see a few hits on this coin, but to me I think it's undergraded. I could see it in an MS65 holder. The luster is just screaming and the eye...
