I'll throw in a couple of comparison pics with the date of the another 1939 S. What do you guys think? Thanks for looking! Random coin Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75080 Posts	Posted 03/31/2020 10:36 pm There's a chance that it could be. It's much thicker than normal. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4407 Posts	Posted 03/31/2020 10:46 pm It's obviously a later die state, so the slight extra thickness could be due to die wear. Based on the pics, it has more vague uniform thickness than thickness that pushes towards the rim like a Class VI DD. Can you get more pics of IN GOD WE TRUST? Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 04/01/2020 01:10 am The thickness is, as Tanman notes, from a later die stage and does not show characteristics of a DDO. Tanman's description is correct. Report this Post to the Staff

Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 04/01/2020 08:32 am Thanks guys. It's definitely a vlds coin. John 1 I think the rippling is due to the die wear. I can't get the better pic of IGWT right now I away from home. There s a tiny bit of md on trust. Wasn't sure if about this one that's why I asked! I've got one I'll post later that there is no question on! Edited by Willburton 04/01/2020 08:32 am Report this Post to the Staff
