Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 10/26/2017 9:12 pm To the forum! Not the right terminology. Stick around, we'll "learn ya gooder" as my idiot son-in-law would say. It's not a Doubled Die ( DDO / DDR)nor an Repunched Mintmark (RPM). Notice the lettering near the rim, shows this was a Late Die State with die flow(metals moves outward) and the become wider as the dies are polished more. Your last LWC, who cares what the date is, won't be going in your collection now will it? It does look like a 1948P with a whole lot of "Road Rash" damage. Report this Post to the Staff

Too bad about all the damage on it. Please do post anything interesting or that you have questions about. Edit: my first thought was 1945 as well.
