1937 DDO - 001 or Just An Old Wore Coin?

#1 Unread post by JRWSp00n »

Hi - From research and comparisons using Variety Vista think this is a 1937 DDO-001 or FS-25-1937-101 (012). Also, appreciate any feedback on quality of coin - I think it's between G06 to VG08 from photo comparisons on PCGS site, might even be GV10... I often look too closely, but this is a rare coin and want your feedback... Cheers Jay

That sure looks like a heavily worn example of the -001

Thanks- just got it back from PCGS G04 and DDO-001. They even posted it on their site as an example.
