SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 6:30 pm Been on a roll with the varieties the last few days. Another pretty major doubled die just pulled out of circulation! The separation lines are a bit hard to see from circulation wear, but the split serifs are still quite visible (especially on the lower serifs of STATES).

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 6:43 pm Thanks @-makecents-! Yeah, I've been on a real hot streak the last week or so! Gotta enjoy it while I can, because I don't get streaks like this very often lol Edit: just noticed I went on autopilot and titled the post FS-801 (I wish). Corrected to 802.

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 8:25 pm @Dearborn yeah, the doubling is much more visible in mint state when you can see the separation lines fully, but if you know what you're looking at, you can see where all the doubling is on this example, which enhances the experience.

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 8:49 pm Great find! I always feel that most folks are keying on 801 and this one doesn't get checked for. But still quite hard to find so likely the more rare variety. Report this Post to the Staff
