Soooo .... in my search so far I have set aside 3,053 roll-found Jefferson dated prior to 1960 ...... and have not searched them for potential varieties.

In the spirit of doing this before the task becomes overwhelming ... I have committed myself to go through all of them and take a second look.

My research so far indicates that I should be looking for the seven following varieties:

1939 DDR
1942-D over horizontal D
1943/2-P
1945-P DDR (more than one variety?)
1949-D, D over S
1954-S, S over D
1955-D, D over S

Am I missing any here?

Does anybody have links to good photos that can aid in identification of these? The RedBook photos are very small.

I'll check in later and update you on what I come up with.

Wish me luck ... the piles of nickels waiting in the Crown Royal sacks are quite intimidating.

There's a lot listed on the NGC variety plus page, but I am guessing that many are fairly minor. I think you got most of the main ones, but here's a few more:
1938 DDO
1941-S inverted mintmark
1956 DDR

Thanks everyone for the additions to my list.

Appreciate the photos wheezydog ..... those are very helpful.

Soooooo .... I have a large pile of 'potential' varieties now .... and realize that I need better optics than the el-cheapo 10x loupe I own.

In search of better optics ..... then a full and detailed review to follow (with photos of course of any finds).

I did come across three "Black Beauty" Jefferson ..... photos on the way in a separate thread.
