Which version do you have?
If you just want the coin, buy the Standard for $2. The Double Die versions offer more than just the coin; they represent specific minting events and are inherently scarcer. The DOUBLE DIE FS-101 at $55 is the most premium, while the general DOUBLE DIE at $10 is a step up. Save your money unless you are specifically collecting these rare variations.
