Nice!! I hope to gain the ability to find these and assign the right designation to them like you have. Coop keeps pushing me to do better, and I hope at some point he'll be like you finally did it dude.

@ Metal, :
1. Thanks, I look for this one long time and not to pay the bigger price has. I was just lucky on the last sets borrows 6 years ago with 9 $ each.
2. In this Hobby been patient and achieve step by step you will have (is my way to say as I say to all my residents before). I am sure you will have 'it. Specialize in one coin first, but not forgot the others also.
3. Camera? I have three. An digital Zeiss, (2) same category one Sony and the other Olympus 2.1 with all kind of lens adapters (to complicate) and a medical electronic microscope Zeiss Microbiology. I used this but I never find out the best light to do. I try my best with them. But always first I you a Zeiss 3 lens 15x (because my eye focal and the age of the eye. (26 years micro cyrurgies)
PS: If Richard push you you has one of the best Mentor. As a student you has the obligation to by pass the Mentor.

Hey Silvio,
What site do you use for the stages? I tried Variety V.

Thanks for the question TACC. In fact is no site for this. Me I look for Stanton, Wexler, and my mentor Herbs studies and what they told me. Do they was 100% right? !! sometimes. I thing the stages are direct proportional with what we can find, the usurers of the dies, etc. Till now now one made a consensus for. In fact now we compare with what is know. In this case when you has 28 coins knows and you do not know all's is hard, but a supposition will be always welcome. And to tell you, we say Stage x or Y but no really factors are to determinate this, just opinions or by appreciations.
VV go by Marks, in my opinion is : How you decide on the stage from a mark of a Die? in almost cases was not only one? how you balance if you has only one or three?.
Sorry I have no answer to this.
PS: I am very happy to know someone who want to go to the bottom.

Thank you all for answer. I had today the confirmation that it is also the FS-501 MMS-004. The Variety Vista wrote MMS-002 which must be an typing error.

Machine Doubling on the bottoms of the '52' on another example on PCGS. But the MD is also seen on all the date. But the Motto hub spread is more interesting on your coin. (The die state was later on the PCGS example) Hub doubling present, but not as strong as on your coin. https://www.PCGS.com/cert/42653413

Silvio, congrats on a big move forward on finishing your collection!
That being said, I have no clue how you want help on die stage. You refer to Wexler, who does not state anything other than the main attribution, and VV has only a description of the PLURIBUS reference, with no pics and no reverse pics from you of this area. I am absolutely lost....
Given the fact that normally, doubled dies are stronger in early stages, I would say you are correct with a B or C stage, in comparison to VV's "A stage", probably closer to "B stage". Wexler does not mention the stage, so not sure where you are going with this. Once again, congrats!

@ COOP: I never use the phone for any kind of photos, do not work for me. Yes the date seem to be an MD or Strike Doubling. The MM put me now more questions. @ MAKE: only VV show something about the Stages, but they show what they had in the hand. Me I have my own notes wrote after some discussions with them. Herbs wanted to wrote about, but was to late for him to do. I do not know who left to clarify those points. I will like to be a consensus for this as we have for the Double Dies Types..

I looked at Variety Vista on your coin. I have nothing to add to your search for this coin (not that I could see).
Would this be considered to be "between stages"? I am new to Double Dies so really just learning.

. I hope to have an MS 64 but it is more an 63 stage B or C according to the PLURIBUS marker.
