this is a close up of the date area of a 1945D. as I search coins, and compare them to the photos at "coppercoins" site in an attempt to learn, there are 3,1945D's described as having "strong" to Moderate" extra thickness. when I compare this coin, to other 1945's that I have available, this one DOES appear to have extra thickness. I am posting this as much in an effort to learn as I am to see if I have found a variety. is there anything here, or is it just normal wear. thanks.
different inages added - thanks for everyones help.
Much to close of a shot to tell for sure. Really need to see the entire date and mint mark for a good comparision. The bottom of the 9 appears it could be class 6, the top looks to have taken a hit and spread some. A wider angle picture would help.
Yeah, due to the amount of wear and damage on the coin and especially on the Date, would make a Doubled Die identification very difficult to impossible!
Looks a little like 1945D-1DO-002. The curved bar on the right looks like that one. You might check other devices to see if the spread matches. A better image of the full date and mint mark would help as I could overlay that area and see if the mint mark location matches. Looks promising though. http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/dies...ie_state=lds
