This is a 1970-S Proof 66 CAMEO Doubled Die Obverse #3 FS-102
Old #(FS#-030). It is a Large Date over a Small Date.

There is extreme extra thickness on all letter and numerals, with nice separation evident on the lower portions of the digits.

This coin was long considered a class VI Doubled Die until Mike Ellis convinced the hobby this variety is indeed a large over small date. Interest level in this coin is high and the value has increased substantially.

:tinysmile_hmm_t:If you can Cherry pick this one out of proof sets you will make your year!!

I found one of these about 12 years ago, slabbed it and then traded it off for a 1960-D RPM#100 in EDS and a 60-D RPM#4 both slabbed. I still havn't ever found any of these in rolls so to me it was a good trade....
