Good find.

The real excitement would be to check the motto on the obverse for doubling. If it has it, it's pretty clear cut to see; the N, G, T, R, and last T especially have healthy notching.

Yes, that's it and an excellent pix to boot.

Is there only one die or multiple dies for the FEV?

How many different obv. dies are paired with the FEV?

<<Is there only one die or multiple dies for the FEV?

The answer to both questions is more than one. I hope somebody with a better feel for it chimes in now.

If I remember correctly there are at least 4 die pairs:

regular - regular
ddo - regular
regular - ddr
ddo - ddr

There is also a D/D RPM, though I'm not sure if this is included in one of the above or a separate obverse die. Maybe Brian can chime in on that one.

Nice FEV Find!
Also check FEV's for:
WRPM-002
WRPM-003
and a newly discovered DDR-003

Viva La DIVA!

I Love

It's the shape of the eagle's head. For a better explanation;
