1953 P Lincoln cent NGC Pf66 Red- FS 101/ DDO-001 https://coppercoins.com/lincoln/die...ie_state=mdshttp://varietyvista.com/01a%20LC%20...3PDDO001.htmI'm not sure if many people have come across this variety. (I couldn't find any posted here using the search feature.) I helped out at our local coin club show on Jan 14-15 this year but took some time to cruise the isles. On Sunday one dealer had a pile of four 1953 proof cents. They were all graded Pf66 red by NGC. The lighting isn't the best at these shows but all of them had the die gouge on the lapel by the buttonhole, so I knew they were the FS101 variety. I got to pick the best of the four! This isn't particularly rare or hard to find but I liked the fact it was already graded. Enjoy and thanks for looking.     Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

... I wonder if Tropical Bats has one of these This is a fun variety to find and not very difficult so I'm pretty sure he has it. Especially since it is a DDO-001.

Thanks everyone.
It was fun to come across the pile of 4 that were graded the same and pick the best-looking one.

Nice pick up! And yes, a very common die. I have never tried to crossover to PCGS what I've got for this one but I do have two MS67RD CAMEO examples in NGC holders.
