I do believe this is ODV-028, reengraved master die. Could be. All of the high res pics I found in various places online looked extremely similar, maybe just varying die states. Up to this point, the only thing I could find showing this on the web were proofs but did find a business strike that shows it. https://www.PCGS.com/coinfacts/coin...s-1c-rb/2946, and it is the ODV-028. The link I provided did not bring up the coin I wanted to show, it's the rainbow toned coin off to the right at the top. I thought what was going on in the beard was limited to proofs but obviously not. Tanman, is yours a business strike? I know you said yours was in a set but was not sure if they had business strike "S" sets too. -makecents- Edited by -makecents- 12/02/2021 08:11 am Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4406 Posts	Posted 12/02/2021 10:48 am Just went through a bunch of proof sets, found two of these in the '71 proof sets here. VarietyVista does note ODV-028 as being known on proof and BS, though they have it marked as Rare and Ex. Rare (depending on RDV) on the BS. http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...arieties.htm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/02/2021 11:41 am Thanks for posting your coin. Just a few slabbed examples. Probably yours are a fresher die example, but even the strongest on in red was slabbed for a $10 when cost several times that to get it in a slab. DCAM ones were higher value, but only in the highest grades. Dropped like a rock when the grade lowered. Report this Post to the Staff
