<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clawcoins, post: 4057160, member: 77814&quot;]One of the inherent problems is some clickbait websites make it seem as though ANY 69-S *is* a DDO 1.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thus the disregard to replies as they put more truth to something that they *want to be true* versus reality.&nbsp; This is normally where it&#039;s just best to tell &#039;em to send it in to grading/authentication.</p><p><br /></p><p>It seems once people start spending their own money and finding out that something isn&#039;t jiving, then it makes them think deeper than a very loose correlation and start being more protective of their lost cash, thus pay more attention.</p><p><br /></p><p>After all, after 51 years there has only been about 60 (sixty) ?? 1969 S DDOs that have been found with an estimated 100 reaching circulation.&nbsp; And people don&#039;t realize, they were first discovered in 1970 and thus have been searched forever since.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course one may then wonder why only 60ish? . then you get into die life, quality control checks .. the ending of the minting process .. and then they start learning the realities of coin collecting.</p><p><br /></p><p>The neat thing I didn&#039;t realize, was the discoveries were down the street from me at stores that I have peruse in.&nbsp; <a href="https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=233860&amp;whichpage=2" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=233860&amp;whichpage=2" rel="nofollow">https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=233860&amp;whichpage=2</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This kinda makes me want to check my hoard that I&#039;ve been storing since the 1970s.&nbsp; Maybe I&#039;ll give a batch to Rick Stachowski to review or maybe we&#039;ll raid local estate sales .. or maybe not.&nbsp; LOL[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
