Howdy jamie - Welcome to the Forum !!

The pic is too small to be able to make out any details I'm afraid. Can you enlarge it any ?

Larger Pictures

I Have Put Two Larger Pictures On, I Hope This Helps. I Don't Know How Large Of A Picture I Can Put On, If You Need Larger Ones Let Me Know And I Will Try And See If I Can Get Them To You. I Think This Is A 1943 Double Eyed Jefferson With A Double S Mm Over A P Mm. I Am New To This And Trying My Best To Get Good Pictures To Everyone.

Thanks
Jamie

You did just fine with the pics

Hard to say for sure based on just the eye, but it does look like the "double eye". You should also check the date - the 4 & the 3 should have visible doubling. And there should be doubling in LIBERTY. If those are both present, then I'd say ya found one

As for the over mint mark - I cannot see it in the pics. You, having the coin in hand, may well be able to see it where we cannot.

Hi, Thank You So Much For Your Info., I Did Check The 43 And The Double Dieing Is There And Also In The Liberty. I Will Try To Put A Better Picture Of The Mint Mark On Tomorrow After The Storms Has Passed. But Isn't It Unusal To Find A Double Eyed With An S Mm?

Thanks
Jamie

At this point your best bet might be to send the coin in to CONECA for attribution. If it is new discovery you'll get the credit. Click Here to contact CONECA.
