MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 01/19/2024 8:27 pm Take a real good look at the mm. Looks like it might be the DDD/s variety, OMM1 or FS511 Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96283 Posts	Posted 01/19/2024 8:39 pm Thanks Mr. T - I'll do that.. (I've been looking for that one too..) Collecting since 1972.

Dearborn Moderator United States 96283 Posts	Posted 01/19/2024 8:40 pm I do see a split serif on the upper part of the D, I'll get better images tomorrow when I have better lighting for my scope.

Dearborn Moderator United States 96283 Posts	Posted 01/19/2024 8:44 pm Well it is a direct match for VV OMM-001 which does have the comment for D/D/D/S FS-511 So you may be very correct on this - and a huge surprise to me.. http://varietyvista.com/03%20Buffal...8DOMM001.htm Collecting since 1972.

MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 01/20/2024 02:11 am Here is a closeup of the DDD/S that I picked up about 35 years ago. Compare your MM to this one. You should be able to clearly see the split serifs and the tripling of the D to the East. You may need to tilt the coin a little to see the third impression of the D Report this Post to the Staff
