After searching 60% of a BU roll I had not even found a minor mint mark so I was sure I had been a victim of an Ebay seller dupe again. Then I dropped this one under the microscope. At first I thought it was machine doubling but then I matched it to the pictures for this coin on the web site. I think this matches the MDS coin.

Nice find,
I'm still looking for one of those myself. Maybe my next roll.

That's a nice find.

I'm curiouse, was the roll a solid LD roll?
I've wondered if these are hidden in LD or SD rolls.

Be sure to look for the 1DO-003 in the roll.
It's an easy one to miss, I had some rolls that I had searched several times but missed these. I finaly looked above the 9 and saw the doubling there then could find the rest of the doubling.

The 1960D-1DO-001, 1960D-1MM-100 Small date/Large date variety is more often found in small date rolls. I don't know why...but I have found about 13 or so over the years, and they have ALL come from small date rolls.

It was in a small date roll. I wish there was another but I only found this one.

Great find rollmeupabe, I have a bag and a half of 60 D LD that I haven't touched yet. Not counting the 70 or so OBW roll's that are staring at me to open. I do have some small date also. What are the chances I could find a The 1960D-1DO-001 in this batch? This hobby is very time consuming. Thank's
