Hey all

Ok picked up an 1982 DDO FS-101 with "cleaned AU details" on the Bay. Now I can coinstar those ones I have I thought were FS 101's or 102's. After looking at this baby it is impossible to miss the doubling on the motto and the date, the misalianged die adds to it HELLO THERE dummy markings.
After chasing one of these in the wild for 16 months I gave up and bought one. Tough dang coin to buy let alone find. Anyone out there had any luck finding one? I have been following sales of this one and the price is all over the place when you can track one at sale. I think its under valued for the pop certified. Any opinions?
Crazybo want to hear about my 66 FS-101's? Ha! got ya Crazybo :)

Hmmm, well, in one more post you'll be able to email me and get the first two working chapters on " Coin IDing for Dummies", tells how to identify between hub doubling and strike boo-boos.

I bought a 1982 FS-101 on ebay as well...

Then I found one in the wild

The one I got on ebay was in better condition though, so I wasn't too frustrated.

Anyways, I would also like

Ok I know pictures, but just to tease everyone a little here's an update. I studied the cleaned 82 FS-101 I bought on the bay and remembered I had some 82 copper LG. and Small dates in tubes I packed a year ago...yup you guessed it I already owned an MS-62 late die state 82 FS-101 and didn't even know it.
The die misalignment is there, the clash in the 3rd bay of reverse, and the die scratches all match. Its mushy, can't compete with the mid die state I purchased. Here an ethical question...slab the weak die MS-62 and sell it? Nah no way, I want am all. Ok fellas I got 50 posts as a favor to you moderators and the world in general I will start posting pics.
Thanks for putting up with me this long.
