There were only 2 worth voting on. Most are so busy in the design that it will be indistinguishable on the coin. It would help if they told us which theme would be on which denomination, since I guess every denomination will have one of these reverses.
!943 3/3/3 near date, 50 Cent piece . I've found images of the far date, but none for the near date . So I posted it on coins and Canada website and was told its the 3/3/3 near date ..
Rick, I don't see an example of the type in the sweet Charlton catalogue ... so you're saying that this new baby of yours is a super-rare type? (congrats)
coins and canada show the 3/3 as being a near date As you can see, their isn't as wide on the top of the 3 as the one I have . But Bill in burl said : Paul has written the complete bible for 50 cents and it was his work that was in the Charlton variety section, but Charlton can't put everything in those 50-60 pages at the back. Paul has everything and can tell you exactly what you have. I'll give you his email. Send me a PM.

I just received this page to check the date with, it also includes makers 1943 Mintage: 3,109,583 Mint-reported Obverse/Reverse Dies: 168/118 For 1943, the ‘4’ and ‘3’ vary in both horizontal and vertical position in respect to each other and to a fixed ‘19’. The ‘Flat-back 9’ continues. Starting in 1943, approximately half of the dies were chrome plated to increase die life. The appearance of the coins changed from having a satiny finish to a more polished appearance for those from the chrome-plated dies. The chrome-plating in early years had a tendency to peel, leaving a ‘mortar-set’ or shelf on the coins, which can be found on Obverses and/or Reverses. 1943 was also the first year of extensive Reverse Die refurbishment, with over twenty Reverse dies with date digit doubling (re-punched or double-punched). Most coins with a double-punched date digit, also exhibit tool (file) marks, some quite heavy, resulting from clean-up performed on dies before use. Reverse Major Die Varieties.

whoa! that's a lot of die varieties...and I collect those type 50 cents pieces too. mostly toned. I really like its design best for 50 centers
not into the varieties yet. I did just get a very nice toned 50 center.... i will post in a couple days
I was told to check R444d after my images were looked at . If it isn't that one, it be will a new one then. There should be clashes inside the crown, or polishing marks to get ride of the clashes .
