desertgem Pillar of the Community United States 860 Posts	Posted 06/24/2011 8:12 pm Blueszone's photo is of the Philadelphia DDO 1942/1, not the Denver which looks different. It is not just the 2/1 part of the date that is significant, the "4" doubling is quite significant also, so,many references call it the 42/41 DDO variety. It is a doubled die since the working die was pressed both with a 1941 hub and a 1942 hub. The Denver variety also has a Repunched mint mark RPM-4 on the reverse. But no, the posted coin is not either variety. Jim Report this Post to the Staff

desertgem Pillar of the Community United States 860 Posts	Posted 06/24/2011 9:40 pm No problem, I should have put up the 42/41 D photo, but I got lazy.At least you put one up :) I really love the class 3 type of doubled dies. Jim Report this Post to the Staff
