1966 DDO veriety

#1 Unread post by Koinworld »

Third time's a charm I've been having issues due to weather in my area. I logged onto waxters to get the fs number for my die variety. As I started searching I realized that the coin was no longer listed. I found a variety last week and it was easy to locate due to the guy markers that run Northwest at the top base of the head and Southeast at the base of the forehead that's what I remember off of memory I'm sure there are other ones but I don't recall. My question is is it common practice to remove a die variety off of a list. I know this is a common variety and hopefully you know of this variety being that you've been in the industry so long if you can provide an answer I'd appreciate it thank you.

"Variety" recognition has changed significantly in the past few years.....

:eureka:
Unfortunately, everyone has become a numismatic expert (in their own mind)…… Because of the "MONEY" they believe they can make 'Flipping' coins.

..... With the over-the-top cheap inexpensive USB pluggable microscope sales, combined with the increase of Internet users, and the sheer abundance of greedy people in society today, ...there has become a number of 'so-called' newer significant die varieties,....... knocking off the "Lesser Significant" already known findings that have been attributed, with a registered variety number designation.

Sorry I don't understand what that emoji means. I'm not that bright at times.

I hope that isn't the case. I was roll hunting and I don't think I'm any kind of professional at all. That's why I intend on taking it in. I was on a coin site and I showed it and I didn't get a response so I thought nothing of it. Just another small 40 dollar penny and didn't know what I actually had up until today.
