    Another 1982 ddo...

    Been in one heck of a drought lately, so I hope this is the sign of an upcoming flood. Figures I just found this variety last December after looking for it for about 15 years!
    Here is 1982 DDO, FS-101:

    Coin would grade red uncirculated if it weren't for an unfortunate scrape on the right rim leading into the fields.
    Not at all distracting in hand, but the pictures sure bring it out.
    Thanks for looking!

            Nice find, Dennis! The misalignment of the die is a good marker on this one. Of course, sometimes it seems like it is hard to find a 1982 that isn't misaligned! That was a prolific year for MADs.
