Flokizomb Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 02/02/2020 10:12 pm So my thoughts on this are controversial, I believe I see what looks like a 1942 planchet that was struck early after the Mint relized the die had 1942/1 and decided to just polish away the 1. I could be completely incorrect and could just be something else, using my microscope I could see what looks like could have been a 1.well here are the photos ph and this is graded by anacs for just a grade no variety so its encased but having a problem deciding if it's a variety or just my imagination. thanks for the thoughts and opinions Report this Post to the Staff

The 1 and the 2 were equally as strong, so they'd have to remove the 2 to remove the 1. I think you have a normal 1942 Dime. Report this Post to the Staff

Flokizomb Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 02/02/2020 10:41 pm So what's with the 4 in the Date. That def9 looks like there was a second 4 there or it was doubled. There obviously evidence for that any thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff
