1943S 5c Jefferson DDO-011 Stage B
(Thank you CCF member Frank Bauman for the discovery)
I hope all you "nickel hounds" like it.

This was a tough nut to crack. I saw some doubling in the sellers images, but it was kind of subtle. VV has 13 DDO varieties for this year and mint, so I wasn't exactly excited about my prospects attributing it.

I just did them in order and started ruling them out by MM location or strength of the doubling. When I came to 011, the MM location and some of the doubling looked good but there was a die crack on the shoulder for 011 that wasn't on my coin. And my coin has a nice reverse die crack on the dome headed SSE to just above the E of "CELLO" that wasn't in the VV images.

After ruling all the others out, I came back to 011 and started scrutinizing the VV images looking for something that would tie the two together.
I found a small die gouge over the upper right side of the "E" (WE) that was in the images and on my coin. With that, I knew I had my variety #.
(Thanks again Frank Baumanfor submitting your original coin.)

Hope the images are clear enough and thanks for taking a peek.
(The last three images are markers for this stage: die crack in the hair above the forehead, die gouge over the E, and the MM)

Maybe heat stroke?

Thanks guys.
It is hot here Dearborn. And humid. Not the dry heat like the south west.
But hot is hot.
But I'm within 5 miles of the coast so there is almost always a breeze.

I'm feeling a little slow on this one. Can somebody call out the doubling specifically?

I'm out and about so I'll add a few arrows later today.

There is Master Die Doubling during this time. But this one exhibits hub doubling on the top of E of WE, upper part of the inner loop of R, notching on multiple serifs of LIBERTY, the star and the slightest amount on the cross bar of the 4 of the date.
