cownick Pillar of the Community Canada 677 Posts	Posted 07/20/2012 9:58 pm Indeed a very nice coin . It is a very large shift. I could never understand why the shift exsists on part of the letters, and not on the very next letter? Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10458 Posts	Posted 07/21/2012 01:20 am Flat field doubling. Very common on the obverse of nickel dollars, both business strikes and proof-like strikes, from 1968 to 1971. Only a slight premium on value, in the higher grades.

pginrh Valued Member Canada 456 Posts	Posted 07/21/2012 08:19 am Although not as common as the earlier years of the nickel dollar as detailed above by SPP, you can find Obverse F.F.D. on them through to 1977. Nice example on your coin, Domys. Edited by pginrh 07/21/2012 08:21 am Report this Post to the Staff

pginrh Valued Member Canada 456 Posts	Posted 07/21/2012 5:55 pm Not really worth the cost of grading.... as SPP states, these nickel dollar coins with F.D.D. are fairly common. Report this Post to the Staff
