    I got this coin graded (IGC)as Coneca DMR-012 DDO-010 MS67. I can not fine any other examples. Like to know is it common variety? Thank you.

    DDO-010 is listed in the Cherrypickers' Guide as FS-102. MS67 is a good grade for this variety, with a little looking this die number can be located so I would say "not" too rare.

    JMHO,
    Tim

      Thank you very much for the input. I don't understand the "die # can be located" mean not rare?

      Thanks.

        Hi,

        The 1966 Special Mint Sets are fertile ground for DDO Kennedy Half Dollars (most of these DDO Kennedys have some form of doubling on the profile). Each coin with a variance of the doubling is given a unique die number. Die number 10 is rarer then some but more common then others. The last die 10 (FS - 102) that I saw sell on Teletrade on June 28, 2009 went for $170.00 in PCGS MS65 plastic. Back on January 11, 2009, Teletrade had a 1966 PCGS MS67 DDO FS-102 (DDO-010) sell for $550.

        Hope this helps,
        Tim
