Hi I'm new to this community and fairly new to trying to learn all I can about modern varieties and error coins, I'd say 7 or 8 years. So at this point I feel iv learned some things, I believe I can finally identify double dies vs Machine Doubling. But who knows, maybe I can't. Anyway id appreciate any information you can offer and I also wonder if there's a 1943 s TDO that anyone has heard of

Need better photos, but maybe MD and it might be a reprocessed cent.

I agree with 1943-S.
AND
I agree with:
-- reprocessed
-- MD (if anything).

Machine Doubling.

Please always show us a entire coin, not just pieces.
Thanks.

First off, the coin was reprocessed. Meaning the surfaces were altered. Rendering this just a steel Wheat cent now.

Second, the coin is not showing any doubled dies from what I can see on your coins images. No spread on the devices. Just normal devices.

Third, On the tops on 'ST' on trust, that is die wear showing on that area.
Fourth, on the Liberty devices, there is no spread on these devices. Some are showing die polishing that show the devices are smaller than normal. The areas on the tops of the devices are showing not spread, but coin wear before the devices were altered before/after the reprocessing (plating to recolor the surface color. On a doubled die the spread I mentioned, would be an enlargement of the devices from the normal size to the devices size showing spread:

Compared with a normal example, a doubled die will show a spread/enlarging of the devices

Reverse Doubled dies:

Do you see the differences in sizes on the normal and DDR? So looking at the outside edges of devices will find die wear or Machine Doubling. On the centers of the devices, is where you will see the enlarging of the devices. No spread? Usually not a doubled die. Reduced devices sizes are offen die polishing caused, or Machine Doubling.

To find more information, on the top of the page, look for this link:

You can find more information on different topics with lots of images on these pages. On the last several pages, the topics are easier to find the answers to better. So start with page 23 and go backwards. That way you can see what questions you need information on can be found. Click on the link and it will take you with the thread for the topics.
