liveandievarieties Pillar of the Community United States 601 Posts	Posted 04/03/2011 03:23 am Looks like you certainly have a "passable" example of the "variety" listed as FS-901. I have VERY strong opinions of this coin. Here's a thread that sheds a little light on the coin. After you read it, I've got a conclusion- I requested a "variety review" after a dozen of these coins were denied the attribution by PCGS. They certified two of the coins I had, then when I sent in a bunch of them all together, they declined to attribute, just put 69-D and a grade on the holder. "variety review" didn't do anything but waste my time. Still denied the attribution. BUT- the coins they didn't attribute are from the same die as the 2 they did. EXPLAIN THAT. So, in the end, I have more than 12 of these coins, clearly as they were listed in the Cherrypicker's guide, but because of PCGS politics, they're $1 coins in slabs, not $500 coins. Not fair.
