The surfaces are almost for sure damaged underneath, so cleaning won't improve it much. The '68 is an r68 with one broken letter. Do you think it's a DDO? I see some hints around the annulet, but it's too low grade to be sure and I can't see any confirmation anywhere else. _________________________ Howard ShieldNickels.Net

Registered: 02/23/07 Posts: 3471 Loc: Northumberland UK	haah! nice one may use the hole in one gag in my next holed coin listing on ebay yep think so with the 74 the 68 i am hopeing that it is a RPD "like" F-102 but as you say it is low grade but when i enlarged it seemed to have the top of the 1 showing as well .. we shall see .. _________________________ http://Support-the-Collectors-Society.com/sch/alnwickandamblepestcontrol/m.html?item=320862010779&sspagename=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649&_trksid=p4340.l2562 STUFF FOR SALE ON EBAY >> POP IN AND SEE ME $\:\)$ There is no such thing as a lucky person only a person who looks !

dooly dooly I was posting here when you were in diapers. Registered: 02/23/07 Posts: 3471 Loc: Northumberland UK	SOME VERY SAD NEWS .. I found this on Ebay in the US and i needed it so badly .. but i had no idea how much to bid as i have never seen one of this Variety for sale before (the different dates ones i have in my collection were picked up for peanuts).. my Guesstamate was £80.00 UK seen as someone had destroyed this lovely coin by cleaning it to death $doh\!$ Well i was the under bidder .. should i have bid more ? what do you think Thanks to the member who bid on it for me .. _________________________ http://Support-the-Collectors-Society.com/sch/alnwickandamblepestcontrol/m.html?item=320862010779&sspagename=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649&_trksid=p4340.l2562 STUFF FOR SALE ON EBAY >> POP IN AND SEE ME $\:\)$ There is no such thing as a lucky person only a person who looks !

dooly dooly I was posting here when you were in diapers. Registered: 02/23/07 Posts: 3471 Loc: Northumberland UK	picked this wide date up tonight on ebay .. looks like a week strike to the reverse more than ware .. when you see the condition of the obverse.. also there could be some cherry action around the date or just a bad picture but at the price i will give it a risk. sellers pictures _________________________ http://Support-the-Collectors-Society.com/sch/alnwickandamblepestcontrol/m.html?item=320862010779&sspagename=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649&_trksid=p4340.l2562 STUFF FOR SALE ON EBAY >> POP IN AND SEE ME $\:\)$ There is no such thing as a lucky person only a person who looks !

skippy skippy Collectosaurus Rex Registered: 02/01/05 Posts: 400	Definitely FS-003.1, Dooly. Date position, engraved leaf match, as does the reverse hub. The MPD obviously matches. This was a very nice pick! _________________________ Howard ShieldNickels.Net
