  60-D and 38-S are CPG RPM's and the 1909 is 101 or 102, not sure which one. The 60-D is SD/LD RPM, nice one and the 38-S is a triple S, don't have my book around is that right?

  Crazy what you can find if you just keep looking. Just worming up for the Ontario show I'll be there.

  From the photos provided, I do NOT think that 1909 (presumably VDB) is an FS-1102 DDO (and it's definitely not the FS-1101). Sure, it appears to have the die chips in the B and R of LIBERTY, and also appears to have the clash mark under Lincoln's chin... but the first 9 of 1909 does not appear to be thicker than normal which is required for the DDO attribution. Might just be the angle of the photo though. If it's the real FS-1102, there will also be a clash mark on the reverse so seeing a reverse shot of that one would be helpful.
  
  I've made the mistake of thinking I've cherrypicked several 1909 VDB FS-1102 DDO coins based on the die chips and clashing on the obverse, only to find out later that I had several examples that weren't the real deal DDO since there was no extra thickness in the date. I've since noticed that there are many 1909 VDBs out there with the die chips and clashing that are not the DDO. Unfortunately, I've also seen the grading companies get this variety wrong and misattribute a couple of them...
  
  
  In any event, looks like a nice coin and you look to have scored on a few of the others!

  Most of my picks will come from BM's but love to go to show just to many to pick from so you need to stay focus on two or three coins. But that is just me Type2. I'll see if I can shoot the rev on that Lincoln.
