I heard that it's "boring" around here... I filled the 20c slot in my Type Set. Update: Variety MPD

Super clean fields. Very decent strike. Blast white luster. Common date, but great condition. I've seen so many of these worn and without eye appeal. I'm very happy to have added this to my ongoing Type Set. Thanks, comments are welcome!

Looks real nice!
Nice looking coin! I like it a lot. I bet the luster roles pretty good on that one.
They don't come this nice!
Great score.
Thank you. Full Cartwheel. All the way.
Oh very nice!! I’ve been procrastinating on getting one for my type set. Would love to score one like yours.

Nice 20C
hey is this a GTG ?
Otherwise, you dangerously close to adding to the boredom ...
Now that is exciting!
Not boring at all!!
Go for it!
But don’t call it a GTG 
64
ZZZZzzzzzz..........ZZZZzzzzzz.... HMM? What?
Oh, yes. Nice double dime!
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
That coin is not boring at all. Scores like yours don't happen very often and when
they do , they are rarely shared. Thank you.
So very sorry to wake you
Early morning meeting for me tomorrow so I’m right behind you
Very nice 20c !!
Superb! MS66?
I am torn, do we call this a 20 cent piece, or a double dime, or a fifth?
It aint boring, that's for sure!! Nice 20 center!

That is a stellar piece👍
It’s not boring around here at all. Not sure who is saying that but it’s definitely not true.
A double dime
Nice coin! Very sharp! Thanks for sharing it. We don't see enough of these on the boards in my opinion.
But I think the correct forum term for "Blast white luster" is "Ricko approved"
I would say "bling", as opposed to boring.
I like the strike!

Looks like at least a 64. Very nice.

Did you get it on 10-10-2020? I had a passing thought that that would be the day for "double dimes".

I don't see any holes in this coin, so I'd say it's definitely not bored!
Congrats! That's a beauty!

That spices things up a bit, very nice coin!
Thanks for all the great comments! Let me add that I'm pretty darn sure that it's the Misplaced Date (MPD) Variety FS-301 (Bruner-Frost BF-11). There is an artifact of a mis-punched "8" within the denticles below the proper 8. Appears to be only 3 finer (1 ugly at NGC and 2 at PCGS of which one is dog ugly).
My example is graded PCGS MS 64+.

Cool pick up I like
Thanks for sharing your excellent photos.
I believe your coin is BF-14, based on:

@yosclimber Yep that looks like the one. Die cracks, straight line on the MPD 8, all looks correct for the BF-14. Awesome website also! Thank you!
