PCGS Designation: 9873

Certificate: 28907984

Grade: MS65

Obverse Die: Normal Die

Reverse Die: Double Die Reverse

Stars: 13/30

Notes:  This is a coin with a lot of features all mixed in so that it is an interesting study, but not a recognizable double die variety.

In the date the 925 are slightly doubled but this is not the FS-101 variety where there is also doubling of the lettering.  The doubling appearance seems to come from a deterioration of the die in the area and not from repunching.

On the reverse there are a number of interesting features.  There is some doubling in the memorial phrase, but not as much or as pronounced as we often see.  But the lettering in the denomination has all been repunched several times making for a triple or quadruple doubling in that area.  There is also some strike doubling (blue arrows) in the same area making for a really interesting study.

The reverse is also not a complete strike with only 30 stars visible and not a lot of sharp detail in the eagle..
