Saw this one for $33 including shipping a few days ago and figured I couldn't go wrong. The doubled die, DDO-001 is pretty light class 6 doubling and hardly worth mentioning, but that's a really nice RPM. Either way, a nice double variety coin in a nice grade.

Really nice pick up.

That DDO has some nice even thickness. Not your normal class 6 thickness. Well done in what looks to be an earlyish MDS.

Thanks folks for all the kind comments!

Helpme, I'm using a Canon S95 point and shoot for the full coin pics ($50-60 on ebay), and an AmScope trinocular stereoscope for the close ups. Although for most of the macros I am actually cheating and just firing off an iPhone pic through the lens and not taking the time to use the onboard digital camera.

Beautiful coin and amazing pick! Is there a market for high grade varieties like this that are not in the CPG? I'd imagine it would be a specialized buyer.
