KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 05/20/2008 03:26 am I'm posting this for a friend, who noticed an interesting detail on this 43-I Penny: Take a closer look at the star. If I saw that on an American coin, I might suspect a doubled die. He saw a few other details in the lettering that are less obvious to me: Edited by KurtS 05/20/2008 1:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 05/20/2008 04:04 am Yes, I see .PENNY. --Bombay issue, right? What we noticed was the apparent offset in the star. I don't see that on my 1942-I, but perhaps it's common? Report this Post to the Staff

I'd like to hear views on the shape of that star, but for now I'll just keep looking through my coins for a similar one. Report this Post to the Staff
