Think you will find most years have examples.either left of the dies or filled dies.

66, 67, 68, 81. The rest were fills.

I would have thought the "68" would be but McDonalds is telling me the "67" is..

OK thanks guys.

I found a 66 in my coin album with no 'SD'.  I hadn't heard or seen anything of that date.

66 is by far the most common from what I have observed. 67, 68 and 81 are all pretty hard to find. Some examples are simply die fill though. Often the foot to the left shows weakness as well.

Yeah, I've only ever seen fills. Zero chance I'll ever find a 'proper' one at this late stage. :(

Oh, and I thought all the 66's were fills?
