[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2788431, member: 15929"]This particular Doubled Die is OFTEN confused (by the TPGs) with DDO-022 (1971-S Proof FS-106) which is ignorantly oblivious of the fact that DDO-022 is an ODV-006 Obverse Design (PegLeg R) and this one, possibly DDO-029 (but I doubt it due to that HUGE serif Split on the R), is an ODV-004 Obverse Design (Serifed R). None the less, the separation on this particular die variety is quite impressive! Some (i.e. Brian Allen and previously Tom K) point to uplink Master Die similarities which I suppose is possible BUT it does not address the doubling which would have occurred on a "Working Die" during the working die creation process. The "serif" on the ODV-004 looks like it was added with a dremel type grinder tool to THE Master Die for 1971. Of course, this doesn't address the fact that the doubling is "similar" but "not the same" meaning, the ODV-004 version has "rounding" in the "I" whereas the ODV-006 is quite square. ODV-004 (DDO-029*) on the left and ODV-006 (DDO-022*) on the Right [ATTACH=full]647063[/ATTACH] Certainly "similar" but definitely not the same. I can't think of any particular die wear that would change the "I" or the spread so dramatically. As such, each die, being "different" cannot possibly be a "single" die variety. (i.e. FS-106) Dofferent dies, different FS numbers yet PCGS and NGC continually get it wrong costing some buyers, quite a chunk of change!
