Until I can get a photo taken of that 1972-D No FG, I thought I'd share some more of my Todd photos. It's been quite a while since I posted any. (I might blame some British Sovereigns that got in the way for a while.)

1964-D QOD (TDO) FS-105.
Called alternately QDO or TDO in various sources, they are the same thing, FS-105. Before PCGS began certifying varieties, they used the generic description Tripled Die Obverse TDO to cover both the FS-103 and FS-105 (old 13.5 and 13.6, respectively) varieties. Cherrypickers' call the FS-105 a QDO. There are two easy ways to tell the difference between FS-103 and FS-105. On the obverse of FS-103 the extra letters slant straight down at the top of (TR)U(ST) etc. while on the FS-105 (the present variety) the extra letters slant down and to the right. Also, all examples we have seen of FS-105, including this piece, have a short die line connecting NI in UNITED at their midpoints.

1966 ms-66*

 

Darn it!, now I have to look at my newly acquired 66 SMS to see if it has a variety half.

 

Always a good idea to check for Cherrypickers' varieties ... Happy hunting!

 

Why would anyone collect Kennedy Half Dollars, YUK!

Save your money, buy bald headed Franklins!

 

Good grief, it looks like they just let anybody in around here these days :hail:

Well I guess I must say, laying all joking aside as they say, Welcome Aboard!

 

1967 non-SMS DDR FS-801 MS65 PCGS




​

Look for "notching" on the stars on reverse, especially those above HALF, as well as all peripheral letters, stars, and rays. Since this is a circulation strike, not an SMS coin, they are tougher to find in high grade.

Enjoy!

nice addition.

 

Hey, Giorgio, you've been hiding for a while. I like the 67 with a little color added.
