garylcsr Pillar of the Community United States 1952 Posts	Posted 10/06/2007 6:43 pm Thad i was going to say it is a 44 P but now after looking harder I don't think it is. it is not an error though. it could be a filled die but I can not picture what the date would have been. look at it good under a scope or pick it to see if someone used it to practice for gluing dates or mm on coins. nothing in the 40's are key coins worth more than a few cents so I don't get why anyone would glue dates on one unless for practice for that one big one lol Good luck with it Gary Report this Post to the Staff
Firecom911 Valued Member United States 161 Posts	Posted 10/06/2007 7:10 pm I think it's a 1941 with damage. Something banged into the date and pushed the bottom of second "1" over toward the "4". In the second pic you can see the "smear" of metal where the bottom of the second "1" was originally located. Steve Edited by Firecom911 10/06/2007 7:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 10/06/2007 7:40 pm I believe this coin has coin-counting machine damage. I have seen a number of coins where the machine pushes the numerals far up (or down) the coin into a metal blob. Sometimes, it can look like it wasn't struck properly. Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 10/06/2007 9:14 pm its a damaged 1941,, could be counting machine damage or just plain old hit hard by another coin or any number of other things. Metalman Report this Post to the Staff
foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 10/06/2007 9:17 pm It is a 1941 and it is about 99% sure to be counting machine damage. The other 1% could be damage caused by some unusual contact with something else. Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 10/06/2007 10:48 pm Exactly what the four people above me said. Definitely a 1941, and definitely counting machine damage. Odd that 1941 should be so affected, but I've seen a dozen just like it. Report this Post to the Staff
