The sellers images weren't clear but I was pretty sure I spotted the "Blunt 4" over the "pointed 4". It was just a matter od which one of the three it would be. First time I've come across one of these. ps. Thanks to TB for bringing this variety to our attention last year. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have spotted it. (His is nicer and slabbed.) Enjoy!

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 03/01/2023 09:10 am Great coin! That's a pretty neat die which would certainly be hard to spot on a blurry image. Well done! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/01/2023 11:51 am Interesting fact I figured out years ago: So I figure they used a wrong year hub (1948) on this die first. Then note the correct hub (1949) Making these dies altered DDO's. There are three different die examples, but all are listed on the 'S' mint coins: http://www.varietyvista.com/01a%20L...201949-S.htm This is my explanation of how this could have happened.

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 03/01/2023 7:38 pm Very nice find. A 49 hubbed over a 48. I wonder if this occurred any time else? Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5774 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 08:04 am Thanks for the comments and likes. It was the top of the 4 that I spotted first in the seller's images. Coop, I meant to give you a shout-out and thank you for your theory about the overdate. It certainly makes a lot of sense especially since they did that with multiple dies and denominations during the 1940s. (1942/41 P&D Dime, 1943/1942 nickel, 1943S/1942S Cent, etc?) In hand, on this example anyway, there may even be a slight line above the second 9, indicative of the initial 8. The line may be so light it may not add to the evidence but I'll have to see if I can get an image of it with my scope. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5774 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 08:42 am Here are a couple of images around the second 9. Not necessarily definitive but interesting and adds to the discussion if nothing else. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 10:57 am The locations on the mintmarks will show the differences. Edited by coop 03/03/2023 11:28 am Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5774 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 11:08 am Quote: The locations on the mintmarks will show the differences. I'm not sure I follow Coop. The differences in what? Are you saying the mintmark can be used to help determine this is a 1949s hubbed over a 1948S Or a 1949 (P) hubbed over a 1948S. Or a 1949 (P) hubbed over a 1948 (P) and then the S was added?(which could be an RPM also). Thanks again for your help. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5774 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 11:35 am Ah ... yes. Thanks. Any thoughts on the raised "line" above the second 9? (I'm curious if it's showing up on other examples.) Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
