This is not the normal "fatness" you see on these dates. It isn't like the regular DDOs you find with the elongated 9, and the fat tail. I'm not saying this is doubling, just curious what caused it for future purposes, just so I don't run into this again thinking something else caused it. My guess is circulation or a Very Late Die State.  Edited by SilverCents 06/02/2020 9:23 pm

Looks like circulation flattening

Circulation Flattening as mentioned above. Keep hunting! You've been finding some great coins lately!

I agree with the previous answers. You can see how flattened that area is.

But this coin may have been a DDO, when it was struck? Note the verticals on the right side of the '44'. They are angled.

Thanks all, ah you're right Coop!
What a pity that it had to be worn down so badly.

But posting your coin helped others to see where to look also for a DDO on that year. ("1944")
