I don't see a match on the PCGS forum, or Variety Vista. It is a DDR. I need to keep looking yet.

It's definitely the 1940 reverse. I guess now it's about whether it's a DDR or not.

I can't help.

I took pictures using my cell phone (Samsung S8+) and light from living room incandescent lightbulb. It is graded by PCGS ms66 FS, it is also tagged 39 rev of 40. I am trying to find out what DDR it is.

Nice.

It does look like a DDR. It must be a new find or too minor of a DDR to list? Very nice coin nonetheless.

Here's a couple possibilities, maybe you can try to match markers or rule a couple out. I already removed ones that aren't the Type II steps:

I could not match the markers up. Doesn't mean it isn't one of those varieties before the markers were put into the die from use.

I could find a match on Wexlers site. You might want to submit it to Brians varieties. (click on the link on Wexler's site and and it will show how to get in contact with Brian) First get the best images you can do and sent them to him to see what he thinks. Then he might have you submit it.

I have emailed the provided contact at Brian's variety website and I got an invalid return email address. Does anyone know if there is another way to contact?

Good luck!

Hopefully a new listing.
