tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 04/28/2023 02:35 am Could be as it's one of the strong ones. The die marker for FS-101 is DDR-001, so it's pretty easy to work out. Yours kind of looks more like DDO-015, but most dies for that year have pretty good markers so shouldn't be too hard to work out. Report this Post to the Staff

DOCC Pillar of the Community United States 1502 Posts	Posted 04/28/2023 10:19 am thx John1. Hand-me-downs from parents. Was out there last week, they gave me some ancients, others, and a big pile of Ikes and KHDs. They have no clue what a 'error' coin is, just throw them in a jar over the years kinda folk.

atrox001 Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 04/28/2023 2:07 pm I don't think your half would be either the FS-101(DDO-004), or the 71D DDO-015, both of these have the ODV-003, (Obverse Die Variety), yours is the ODV-002. Yours looks like the CONECA listed 71D DDO-016. I couldn't see any common markers between your photos and the DDO-016 in my collection. Attached are a few photos from my DDO-016, that are from the discovery half. Report this Post to the Staff

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 04/30/2023 12:26 am When I see first this post I do not intervene. Atrox it is right with similarities but not markers. that years has many DD's minors for this reason are not any more listed. This one is nice but fall in the minors one.
