macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5839 Posts	Posted 01/21/2011 5:39 pm My guess would be that of a deteriorated die because of flatness around it, but the last digit '3' would cost me to guess otherwise. It doesn't have the roundness of a doubled die. Report this Post to the Staff
arsave Valued Member United States 225 Posts	Posted 01/23/2011 8:26 pm Looking at the split serifs on the bottom of the 4; however, this is too minor to have any extra value or be listed as a DD). Report this Post to the Staff
dumprat Valued Member United States 460 Posts	Posted 01/24/2011 09:05 am Thanks for the replies and knowledge. I was curious because I have 1943s Merc that has the same mark on the '3'. Report this Post to the Staff
