rachums107 Pillar of the Community United States 3345 Posts	Posted 10/15/2011 12:09 pm I see it, right below the 2 and above the first 9 it's most prominent. Nice example! Report this Post to the Staff
arsave Valued Member United States 225 Posts	Posted 10/15/2011 12:21 pm The spread isn't wide, but this is it. The tail of the 9 is split and it can be seen in the 192. Also, notice the die clash in front on the eyes. Of all the examples I have found the clash has been there. I do know there are some without the clashed dies, but I have yet to see one.

arsave Valued Member United States 225 Posts	Posted 01/21/2012 11:15 pm I got the grade back on this one from PCGS. They gave this FS-101 DDO a grade of AU58. Report this Post to the Staff
