I honestly see nothing but a severely polished half dollar.

I was looking at Pluribus, but now I'm not so sure.

Those arrows you have pointing on the bottom picture are not where the doubling is supposed to be. Your arrows are pointed to the backs of the feathers, where there are always those lines. the doubling should be on the fronts of the feathers. I am 100% sure this is not a DDR. |

Sorry, not a DDR. as pointed out the doubling on the feathers are on the wrong side. There is no 5th tail feather to the inside, the "M" of "UNUM" is not fat on the lower right leg. The branch stems under the "IB" of LIBERTY are not doubled. There are other diagnostics, but this is definitely not a DDR. Keep looking because there still are a lot out there in the wild. I collect 46 DDR's, one of my favorite coins! It is also my avvy! |

Well another good piece to display. Any grade guesses?

Take a look at the last photo in my post in the grading section (1946 P Walking Liberty). The Eagle's left leg is clearly doubled. This is the easiest way to ID the 1946 DDR. |

Well as far as grade goes, its very worn and polished, so worth basically minimum and grade would just be details.

MD on PLURIBUS - look how thin, for example, the top of the letter P has been made by the MD. I also have been studying these intently the last could of years and immediately could see this is not DDR. Look , click each icon to show the individual varieties' diagnostics for PLURIBUS and you will also see none of them look like yours. http://varietyvista.com/10%20Walkin...s%201946.htmThe back doubled leg, extra tail feather, doubled feathers in front of the front leg become apparent after you look at a lot of the actual real DDRs. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
