Lightning strikes again! 1961 Franklin Proof DDR FS-801

First let me preface by saying that I search for these virtually every day. I found my first one, a PR67, in 2017. I found another in 2020. It's been crickets since then, but last week this popped up as an auction with "Offers". I offered about 30% over the auction start price and the seller accepted. It arrived yesterday. In hand it looks very nice, 66 or maybe even 67. They're still out there after 65 years!!!
