This DDR proof nickel caught my eye on ebay. Price was on the high end at $22.50, but I do enjoy my nickel varieties.

PCGS #47667966, 1960 Nickel PF66

I will chop up the images as I start working on the coin, but it's a busy weekend for me. My notes from the listing for possible attributions are WDDR 002, 010, 030, 039.

I think you got it. Interesting that the listing makes no mention of those two heavy parallel scratches above the left arch. They are clearly visible in both sets of images, and are much clearer than the scratch inside the arch. Thanks for the help! =)

One question, I thought that the Wexler catalog descended from a copy of the CONECA listings. Odd that this particular DDR doesn't seem to appear in the files.

I think that is a die dent but agree that would have been a good marker.

I have never heard that before but may be the case. I know the different attributors would work in coordination at different times though, I think that is why the attribution numbers will match sometimes. You see it a lot with RPM's.
