<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Brett_in_Sacto, post: 2078797, member: 71510&quot;]This year I completed my ungraded XF/AU set of Liberty Peace Dollars, and started on a rather daunting collection of MS-64 grade to complement the set.&nbsp; MS64 was about as daunting a task as I could afford in the complete set.</p><p><br /></p><p>I usually collect at shows, but I had a bunch of Ebay Bucks to spend, and put them into a 1923-S in MS64 online.&nbsp; Much to my amazement it arrived today, and the first thing I noticed was an extra &quot;band&quot; along the back of the neck.&nbsp; I started examining in more detail, and found a pretty clear doubling on the neck and on the 3.</p><p><br /></p><p>So I started getting closer and closer with the camera on my mobile phone (Yeah, I&#039;m goofing off at work while on a conference call).&nbsp; I started seeing the halo on both sides.&nbsp; I can see the ghost/halo of both the Eagle and Lady Liberty on the opposite sides!&nbsp; It&#039;s very clear and apparent, I will get better pictures up in the next day or two once I get the good camera set back up.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I know there is a bit of a difference in mechanical doubling and true DDO, but I think the ghost/halo images on both sides are clear - even in the poor pictures below.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d love feedback, comments, etc.&nbsp; It&#039;s listed as a standard MS64 by NGC, and I&#039;m almost amazed that they didn&#039;t catch this!</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m excited, and I&#039;m going to have to wait until the next coin show to have someone with trained eyes give it a second look.&nbsp; But right now I feel like I got a great deal on a very rare specimen!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]386334[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]386335[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
