    As an S it would have to come from a Proof set.

    It's a proof coin. Where else would it come from?

    Definitely a Major. Possibly a Light Colonel!

    Amazing that 15 years has gone by the time this one (discovery) was made. "Congrats" to the person who owns the set of eyes that found this.

    I have a few 1999 Clad Proof Sets stored away. Guess now I need to look at them.

    I actually like the coin and would like to either see one in-hand or a more life-size photo to see if I like it more.
    Not so warm and fuzzy with the title edit to poke at things ("DARE IT BE CALLED MAJOR?" part...I know that wasn't there initially).

    All in all, title excluded, if it shows well real size, then I do think it could be a major DDO. Can definitely see the doubling without 10000000x zoom. image

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    That is a very worthwhile doubled die in my opinion, especially since it's one from the "single squeeze" era of die production. A question-are all doubled dies created with the single squeeze process Class IV or Class IV+VIII doubled dies?
