coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 12:33 pm The design for that year on the date looked that way. I just looked at heritage to see if it that were normal or not. Report this Post to the Staff
Rackster Pillar of the Community United States 4809 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 12:57 pm The Heritage coin/image shows the devices as 'ballooned' for lack of a better term where as the other coin's devices look sharp. I'm no expert by any stretch, but the two look different. The Motto and Date appear distinctly different. Good luck!! Report this Post to the Staff
Collector-Corner Pillar of the Community 872 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 2:40 pm Not all coins are struck form the exact same die. There are many over the year, so some subtle changes will be evident. It also depends on the die state EDS(early die state), MDS (Medium Die State), LDS (Late Die State) or VLDS (Very Late Die State). So differences can happen many different ways. The older and more worn out a die gets, the thicker a device can be, looking less sharp. Along with older dies, they tend to be a bit looser and thus, Machine Doubling (MD) ould become very apparent. If your talking about the possible clipping at the bottom of the letters "In God We Trust", if I am seeing that right - that's Machine Doubling as it clips away some of the letters, reducing them in size. I cannot tell if that's exactly going on or not. I had to magnify the area by 300% to see it, but unsure if it due to lighting. I suggest going to NGC and looking over the 1943-s's listed there. You will have to pay attention to the way the coin looks - no clipping or reducing the size of a letter number or other devices. If yours looks cut and sloped on any portion, its probably MD. http://www.ngccoin.com/coin-varieti...rs-vscid-40/ Edited by Collector-Corner 05/05/2014 2:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff
rupester Pillar of the Community United States 1300 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 2:58 pm I like it... I have a weird reason why but I think its right.. I've been doing the same on ebay last 4 days I think I am going to have some amazing stuff to share of course its waiting for the mail man time hahaha The 4 in the date the NG TR look good but its the blast wihite I think obscures the devices.. Using my crude USB microscope on coins I know as DOubled Die I can perfectly duplicate that.. Its just a heavy light flooded image Edited by rupester 05/05/2014 3:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff
