Every once in awhile I pick a couple quick things to look at between major tasks, like the 2 Close AM 99 Lincolns I found last time I did this. This time I had Peg Leg Ikes and 70-S small dates on the brain...so I looked at about 150 or so 1971-S Blue Ikes- no Pegs And so to make sure no one missed any small date proofs I looked at about 50 sets...none were mislabeled as large dates, but the fun was in the large dates ! I knew something was amiss when I saw it, and I am familiar with the variety from Cherry Pickers, but it was not really what I set out for. Got the loupe on it and lo and behold...A Small over Large Date DDO ! Wait...it gets better ...Decided to finish the sets and then scope and confirm the coin...two sets to go.....Second to last set...another one !! Needless to say I earned my keep this week...whew ! I am going to purchase one of the sets, when I get it home I will try to get some better pics- but in the cello under the scope , this is as good as it gets. I can't wait to go to work tomorrow !!

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 09/06/2008 2:08 pm That's got to be one of my favorite LMC varieties--a dramatic D/D and unusual DDO on the same coin. Report this Post to the Staff
