Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 03/03/2021 07:48 am I know some of you will say. "Will. That's not an error it's a result of an over polished die". Yes I know but it was considered a variety in the previous year. I thought it was cool so picked it up for $20. What do you think? PCGS MS66RD Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/03/2021 09:06 am WADR, I would have passed on it just because of the carbon spots. It also does not look like the roof is floating, I think I still see attachment. What slab and what grade? John1 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/03/2021 10:12 am Well these are not a die variety. They are a die event. The die started off normal, and after a few times of polishing of the die, those devices were weakened. (Remember a die variety starts off as a die variety, from strike #1) Report this Post to the Staff
Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 03/03/2021 12:35 pm Coop. What's up with the 1969D FS-901 no FG. Or any of the bugs bunny half's. They were late die state add ons in my opinion. Report this Post to the Staff
Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 03/07/2021 10:49 pm My last rebuttal on this coin. John1 here's a closeup of the floating roof. Looks right to me? Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 03/08/2021 02:25 am Did PCGS label this one as a floating roof? Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/08/2021 04:31 am With the added pics, it does indeed look like a floating roof and no FG. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 03/08/2021 08:25 am No this one isn't considered a variety so no label by PCGS. This seller has another of this die ms65 for $13. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1970-D-PCG...333780338182 Report this Post to the Staff
