I received this one in a Give Away! Cool!

I have arguing with myself if this DDO is FS-101 or FS-104.

Can some of you confirm either way, for me?

I'd be curious as to an estimate about the grade of this one, too.

Thank you, in advance!

Thank you, Gincoin43!

I can see the die scratch on the reverse and a hint of the mark on "T" of trust. I do not see the die gouge on the "L" like in the FS-104.

So, I am leaning towards the FS-101 with much certainty and it was my first hunch, but I didn't want to make a big rookie mistake.

With so many working hub doubling that year (WWHO-001-3) It makes it harder to match up this years halves.
Take a look at them. I'd still save them, But they are a lot more work to figure them out.

It sounds like you do have the CONECA listed 66 BS DDO-005, FS-101...if you have the reverse die scratch as shown on Variety Vista. The scratch going from the arrows to the A in DOLLAR. Attached is an additional photo of that scratch for your comparison. I don't think you have the FS-104, DDO-019 because the -019 is a SMS, your looks like a BS.

I think that my coin matches this die marker/pick up point, pretty well.

Thanks for making me take another look.
