  • My guess is if you reversed the angle of lighting (or shot the Ike upsode down), you would see enough tripling on the bottom right of the G to put this Ike between my FS-101 Family "Bookends", though at the weak end of my range of attributability.

    Whether ANACS or PCGS would atribute it as FS-401 is a bit of a crap shot because PCGS may require a specific Mintmark placement if the doubling is big enough and ANACS may or may not use my book.

    Brian Vaile is the expert when it comes to what PCGS has been doing with this Ike.

    From my point of view, this Ike is a "Collectible FS-401 Family DDO" but it may be a while before the DDO Ike Proofs settle down. Rob

    Rob,

    I appreciate the observations. If it helps, this coin also shows a very small DDR - star above the R of Dollar shows very minor doubling.
