Do you think this is a 1942/1 D Mercury dime?

It doesn't look exactly like the ones pictured online but theres something going on with the date for sure.

Let me know what you think, thanks folks.

This is telling. Except for wear, all of the 1942/1 dimes should look basically the same.

There are only two versions of the 1942/41 known
so if it isn't exact, it can't be one.
