    I believe this is a fairly early die state example of the 1936 P FS-101 DDO. Pretty confident in this one but as always would like other's opinions. In an NGC fatty, graded MS64.

    Sweet! Not sure why, but Buffalos have been the kindest to me when cherrypicking

    The top of LIBERTY isn't that thick on yours. Neither is the bottom of the date. I'm just comparing the pics of early and mid die state from Variety Vista.

    Not all Doubled dies are going to be screaming out at you... and of course the values or demands arent going to bring moon money either....

    The top of the 9 and the inner bottom of the 3 in the 2nd (angled) picture that I posted are what convinced me. I was hesitant because of the liberty thickness, but I figured early (or maybe late? Please correct me if you know) die state would explain it. The shaping is there on each letter, the upwards pointing ends of the legs of the E and the point on the upper left of the B both match up near perfectly; aside from the level of definition on doubling.

    Glad others agree, happy to add this one to the collection!

    I’m sure you are and I can’t imagine why you would want this in your collection. Lol
