A difference on a coin, that has proven to be somewhat tough to find. Can you spot what is different about this coin?  |

well used coin, perhaps a weak strike. But I doubt it.

The designer's initials are pretty much worn off.... (or were poorly struck to begin with)

The oblong dots suggest DDO to me, maybe its my eyes but I think I see some very faint lettering in front of the kings face from under his chin to his forehead, also possible clash in kings ear. Maybe just to worn not sure. |

This obverse is a dead resemblance of the 1947 pt.7 quadruple die obverse, anyone else seeing it?

Like always, it is better to have the coin in hand to fully appreciate. First pic is a close up of the 1943 oblong dots and second pic is a close up of the 1943 round dots. Hope this helps those who are interested, to find an oblong dot example for their collection.   |
