Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6464 Posts	Posted 02/21/2025 5:40 pm FS-801 Doubled Die reverse variety. Nickel is VLDS++. All the Die Deterioration flow lines create tremendous luster. Might be worth noting that PCGS is very generous with die state for the 1954-S (although I will likely not have the coin graded and attributed). https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin.../images/4054 https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...mages/569522 Report this Post to the Staff

captainkurt Pillar of the Community United States 1406 Posts	Posted 02/22/2025 09:34 am I agree with E & V. In looking at examples yours seems to be a later die state FS-801. Collums are almost gone where some of the 65's have a little more detail there. Got those marks on the shoulder too. Love the visible die marker between the N & T in Monticello! Thank you for posting this! I would have looked at this coin and culled it. Always appreciate seeing new and exciting varieties! Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6464 Posts	Posted 02/24/2025 8:29 pm I ran across a batch of MS63 PCGS slabs listed on ebay today. All of them had tremendous Die Deterioration like the coin above. Most had a brilliant gleam as well. So apparently PCGS will knock the nickel down a couple pegs for such severe Die Deterioration, even if the coin is otherwise very nice. Report this Post to the Staff
