MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 12/09/2020 11:28 am Batting average has not been that good on my DDO identifying lately. I think this is a valid one and potentially the FS-101. The pictures are not the best, but I think they show the doubling. I am going to ask Santa for a better photo set up for Christmas. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Rothery Pillar of the Community 2145 Posts	Posted 12/09/2020 12:10 pm The splits serifs, especially on the E, look pretty good - I'd agree, a minor DDO. Wonder if it is listed? Report this Post to the Staff
MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 12/09/2020 12:12 pm The doubling on the U and S of Trust is what led me to FS101 . Didn't see any others listed that had that same doubling on the S Report this Post to the Staff

MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 12/09/2020 1:16 pm Thanks all! The coin does have a slight " Ring of Death" from a rolling machine. Bummed about that! Report this Post to the Staff
MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 12/09/2020 1:21 pm It will go in a 2x2! Report this Post to the Staff

atrox001 Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 12/09/2020 3:50 pm I believe your half dollar is the 73D DDO-001, Stage B...note the Stage B has a light clash mark coming off the nose, reference the attached photo from the one in my collection. I can see it in your obverse photo, Wiles doesn't mention it on Variety Vista. Report this Post to the Staff
