This is the best I could do to show what may or may not be an overdate. Since Philadelphia and Denver have a variety, why not San Fran I suppose.

Photos unreadable. I'd love to see what you have, though.

Here is a better photo and some doodling to point out where I was looking. Now since this coin is from San Franscisco I only loosely based the thought I was seeing an over date, because the over date varies between Denver and Philly dramatically. Thanks for the input and interest

Just circulation marks - IMO.

Sure it could be that but do you see any similarities with Denver's variety? Sure the 4 is doubled differently and maybe I'm just reaching on this one haha! I got this pic from PCGS btw

See how what you think is a 1 is tilted dramatically to the left? That would not have been characteristic of a 1941 die. I say it is not an overdate.

This is what Hflirn is seeing. I still don't think it's the overdate.
