Dowhat Pillar of the Community United States 877 Posts	Posted 07/19/2021 1:04 pm This LWE appears to me as DDO. The closest reference is VV 1941-DDO-026, 26-0-VI. Extra thickness and minor separation on 9 & 4 of the date. Vertical bar on 4 and right side of the 9. That greased out last numeral on the date, pretty fat had it struck. Perhaps the grease broadened it. My biggest problem is lack of markers. I am not sure about this die state. This example , in my humble opinion, borders between AU & MS. The fields are nearly spotless. Hoping someone can help me out. Report this Post to the Staff

Dowhat Pillar of the Community United States 877 Posts	Posted 07/19/2021 1:12 pm The only reason for the image ofthe top left wheat ear is the chip/hit location. It is about the only possible marker I was able to fabricate. Let me know what you think. Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4406 Posts	Posted 07/19/2021 2:29 pm Looks like DDO-026 to me as well. That gouge in the wheat ear is a good die marker. Report this Post to the Staff

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 07/19/2021 5:23 pm Nice find, definitely extra thickness on the stem of the 9. Haven't done the research, but definitely trust Tanman if he thinks 026. Report this Post to the Staff

Dowhat Pillar of the Community United States 877 Posts	Posted 07/20/2021 05:21 am Thanks to all for the confirmation. Extra thickness on the devices is the most difficult to detect from my experience. The condition of the coin made it somewhat easier. Any opinions on the last 1 in the date? Again,thanks for the feedback. Report this Post to the Staff
