Did Anyone Here Snag that Top-Pop Unattributed 1964 QDO Proof Half on GC Tonight?

My question above is more rhetorical, but this one made me think back to that thread that was asking people to share what they cherrypick that was on the front page about a week ago. Made me chuckle since all it takes is one more person to know what to look for and a cherrypick can turn into just a standard auction. I've found that the more complicated varieties are still findable, but this one is not super easy to identify.
In this case, at least four people knew what they were looking at and it went for a pretty penny.

So what did they see? It doesn’t appear to be the accented hair …..🤔
Based on “QDO” being included in the thread title, the bidders recognized a “Quadrupled Die Obverse”.

Nice pick up.
If you zoom in on the auction pictures you can see the PUP especially on We Trust.
I cherried my own raw collection a while back and found this. Sent to our host a couple of years back.
maybe it is unattributed because it is not a recognized CPG variety but a minor DDO?
It’s FS-105.

Thanks Mark…I had no idea what that even meant and looked high and low for something on the coin. Guess it’s a great thing I’m not a grader….lol
good luck with that
I didn’t win it.

The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!
