I'm almost thinking about buying it to see what I'll get! Unfortunately, I just bought a real 1938-D only minutes before seeing this topic. Oh well...  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

That's really weird . Why don't you contact the seller and ask if he sees anything odd about that Nickel ?  |

Not sure what is going on on the reverse. Lousy picture. The "D" doesn't look like a D as seen on the War Nickels so I don't think it is a switched image. I'm wondering about a counterstamped D. |

I'm wondering about a counterstamped D. I was thinking the same thing until I zoomed the image and rotated it. Now I am not sure... Quote:
I also think the seller simply has images mixed. Looks like it's the exact same reverse image from their listing of the 45-D I think we have the answer. |

The location of the staples on the 2X2 indicate 2 diff coins. Would have made a great fantasy piece.

Looks like the 45-D has some reverse die rotation.

Mistake by the seller. The staples give it away.

The staples give it away. I did not even notice the magic staples that appear to have been applied on both sides.  |
