I decided to just make this a new topic to get attention. Thank you for your comments yesterday. I've experimented with the optimizer and am providing the results of that. However, I won't know what it looks like until I upload them and post it appears. I believe this is 1968-D is known on the PCGS Coin Facts as a 1968-D DDR FS-801. However, they provide no picture of this variety and there are only two know listed on Coin Facts. I am considering sending it in for grading. Your opinions will play a lot in whether I do submit or not!! I would also appreciate any grading opinions as well. Thanks again. If the pic's are still too small I'll give it another try. Steve

You need to edit your title because the date is wrong.

I searched around for a pic - very frustrating.

I hope someone here has one.

to the forum!

From what I can see in the images you have posted, what you have appears to be an example of Mechanical Doubling or Strike Doubling. It happens from time to time on all coins during the striking process, it is not a die issue.
Doubled die errors will cause the coins devices to appear wider, not smaller as shown on your coin. There should also be some notching visible on the lettering. Here is a link to some photos of a genuine 1968-D FS-801 doubled die reverse: https://coins.ha.com/itm/washington...1166-11048.s

EDIT: If you click on the images on that site, it will let you zoom in to see better detail.
