Jsalsa123 Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 10/12/2018 9:05 pm Just picked up another 1943 DDO FS 101 this week. Was wondering how you might grade it? Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/12/2018 9:36 pm Appears re-processed in these pics. Genuine MS coins have a sort of satin-like appearance. No grade. Edited by Coinfrog 10/12/2018 9:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Jsalsa123 Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 10/13/2018 10:06 am If it were plated would it have cartwheel luster? This one is really nice looking n hand and was authenticated by ANACS. Do these pictures change your mind on being plated? Would it make sense to get this PCGS certified? Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4396 Posts	Posted 10/13/2018 10:17 am Well, if ANACS graded it straight, then it isn't plated. Might just be your lighting making it look plated. It also isn't FS-101, it's a more minor DDO. The extra thickness on the date isn't strong enough. Also, if it were FS-101, ANACS would have labeled it as such. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/13/2018 10:19 am In my experience these often have a satiny appearance, but I'm sure ANACS knows what they're saying. Edited by Coinfrog 10/13/2018 10:20 am Report this Post to the Staff
Jsalsa123 Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 10/13/2018 10:45 am Tanman, I do not have the capability or lighting to take pictures. But this Coin has all the EDS Die Scratches found on coppercoins for the FS 101. I agree though, the Spread on the date does not look as prominent as my other, could that be because it is EDS and there is less separation? Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36724 Posts	Posted 10/13/2018 12:43 pm MS-63 would be my grade. Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4396 Posts	Posted 10/13/2018 5:48 pm No, EDS doubled dies would typically have MORE separation. The die scratches under the U in PLURIBUS and on the neck should be visible in your pics because of how strong they are, but I don't see them. It's not FS-101. See if you can match die markers to a different number: http://www.varietyvista.com/01a%20L...O%201943.htm http://doubleddie.com/395701.html http://www.coppercoins.com/diesearch.php Report this Post to the Staff
