Hello, I just recently found a pretty beat-up 1969-D No FG, and someone told me to look for a floating roof. We both can't decide if it's a floating roof or not. I don't think it is only because you can barely see where it connects on the sides, but what do you think?

Unfortunately not a floating roof, as one side is visible in my humble opinion. I can see remnants of the FG slightly. Perhaps a slight Greaser or over polished die.

Not a floating roof, but I believe it is a No FG. The second picture helped.

I will say No FG. No floating roof, also if was do not matter because is not a variety and do not bring more value.

very slight hint of the FG in first image, but not in the third - but that could be the angle the light.
The roof is not floating. a result of over polishing of the die.

Obviously the roof shows attachment, so not a floating roof, sorry.
