That's a well documented error. Probably worth a couple hundred dollars.

It's a nice 72 DDO for sure. I think it's a die #1. I owned one once. I'd send to PCGS but you need to be a member to do so. Your local coin dealer can do it for you.

Thats a great find. Someone must have gotten into an inherited coin collection and thought it was just spare change. That happens a lot. Good for you. :icon_thumright:
