[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 7743411, member: 13307"]A recent purchase has me curious about this particular coin and die variety. Since I'm away from my camera, I can't post pictures (I will add them when I get back on Tuesday) - but I just acquired two (yes, TWO) that are, at the very least, high AU. Both are, to some degree, "woodies" as well. Both exhibit the S/S/S RPM as well as the doubling on the first two digits of the date. I see that NGC and PCGS both attribute the variety, which tells me they are at least recognized and desirable varieties. How rare/common are they? Are the feather details typically mushy, or more specifically, are they typically weakly or strongly struck? Are there any grade points where the values significantly jump up? I'm happy to go do some reading if anyone knows where more information is available. EDIT: Here are the photos #1 [ATTACH=full]1327455[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1327454[/ATTACH] #2 [ATTACH=full]1327763[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1327456[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1327457[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
