Dowhat Pillar of the Community United States 876 Posts	Posted 07/15/2024 8:50 pm Found this in a random location of my dad's vast collection. Presently tasked with liquidating it for him. I heavly leaning toward DDO-008. DDO- OI3 similar. My main dilemma is a lack of visible market which it seems to have none front any stage. This one is MS but die stages are still a bit above my paid grade still. Let me know what ya'll think. Report this Post to the Staff

Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 07/15/2024 9:07 pm On Variety Vista I believe its DDO-008 (FS 108), Stage B but let the experts here confirm it. Great find!! Edited by Seeker_101 07/15/2024 9:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95443 Posts	Posted 07/15/2024 9:41 pm Sure looks like DDO-008 on VV's site. It even looks like that the VV example is also a MAD strike. Collecting since 1972.

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8743 Posts	Posted 07/15/2024 10:39 pm Very nice DDO and my second 72P find. I did a quick look for easy markers over the first and second T of TRUST and they are both there, nice attribution. As for the MS designation, I am no grader, quite bad at it actually but yours well below MS grade, sorry. I circled the two T markers below. Yours looks like die stage B.

Dowhat Pillar of the Community United States 876 Posts	Posted 07/16/2024 07:29 am Yes, I mistakenly referenced Coppercoins yet provided Variety Vista designation number. I did indeed mean VV not CC. Sorry if it caused some confusion. I looked for all of the markers at VV and did not pick up the gouges above the two T's. Eyes aren't as good as they used to be. Thanks makescents. As to the condition, I simply went along with my dad's opinion as UNC on the 2x2. He's been at for 60yrs or so. Maybe it was the early years of his grading abilities. Even the pros get it wrong on occasion at the TPG's. Looks like I need to scrutinize his grading skills more closely. It's not easy when it comes to second guessing my dad. He fell for it on the 42 over41 Merc. dime I put up on the classic forum. Members set me straight on that one also. More to come as I slog through the sea of coins at my disposal. Thanks for your feedback ya'll. John1, possible you could edit my title to read VV, not CC? Report this Post to the Staff
