    I keep looking, with the hopes of finding something eventually. Can someone please tell me if this looks like a doubled die or if it is another strike doubling that I always seem to find! :smile

    It's hard to tell from your photos. The glare on the (presumed) area in question doesn't help. Did you check the reverse for the DDR FS-801?

    If you have the complete set of the 1966 SMS, you should also check the Kennedy. There are several DDO's and one missing the designer's initials on the reverse.

    I was able to kill some of the glare and get what I think is a better picture. I did check and designers initials are there. I do not see anything listed in the Cherrypickers' Guide about a DDR...what should I look for? Thanks again! 1966 .50 5.jpg

    Doh! Dumb me! This is a Kennedy! Yes, it sure looks like a DDO. It could be the FS-103 or the FS-104. Both have doubling on IGWT, the eye, the hair, the designer's initials and the profile, but the FS-104 also has doubling on the "TY" of LIBERTY.

    Here are some of my photos......

    Thank you very much for the info. I do not see any doubling in IGWT (and I usually see it everywhere) and I just can not seem to get a good enough picture of those areas to post. I am just glad I finally found something different!

    Your half dollar is a 66 SMS doubled die (double profile). You should use the CONECA Master Listings on Variety Vista and try to attrubute it.
