Hey All, another from the Grandparents.....so I of course am not sure. The first is regular shot and how I saw the coin, the others are magnified at different angles.
Not 41/42 But there is a 1942 DDO In God We trust is doubled. Post a photo of the whole Obv. Then we can see if its a DDO
Ty for the Reply this coin has been in holder for over 40 yrs BTW. Oh um I do know it was not the 41/42 I wish LOL. I will post the whole pic as soon as I can, I got to work this week, I hope I will get in here today. So no comment on the date itself though?
Here you go....My thought was the 1 and 9 are dbld and the 4 I am not sure looked a little flat. As to "In God We Trust" I think I see a little something with the I-N-R and S but they are very worn.
I hope these are better shots....on line I found a few other that posted what they thought to be dbld for this year, but they were MD going West and very flat.
Not a DDO but has a large S mint mark. If were in a higher grade like Bu would be worthy of grading. In the grade posted just a Good keeper large S 1942 Mercury dime.
Thanks a bunch had to check especially since it would have been a first! Is that called a trumpet S mm? Take care!
Hey Sir, sorry to go back to this one. As I look at some of the early listings of this series the few of them, the 9 seems to be the one that is dbld. Just wondering if you can really take another look at that 9 again. The 1 seems to show a split but pretty much on top of each other. The 4 seems flat but when you get to the 2 (what's left of it) the top portion is very thick. Back to the 9 though it does show a minor (what I think I see) split serif on the bottom and the doubling (that I think I see) is around the top East of the 9; this is not flat at all and resembles some of the earlier ones in the series. Couldn't there be doubling and MD on coin/two different process. Please, I am not trying to be a stinker just asking if you can revisit it. I can try to get more of close up on the 9, but I don't I have great equipment. Thank you for looking and responding the first times you are the only one responding ty!!!!
Hey thanks so much Sir for even taking the time to do this! I never use a microscope but I did, a cheesey one. There is spread on Top of the T in Liberty and The Y, my pictures here, if you look at the Y it shows a bit, but way blurry. I also observed it on the initials but I think it's MD. I wish I had a set up to take pictures from the microscope. I am going to look into it just a bit more. If I find something or purchase the right scope I will post it. Sorry I didn't reply sooner, I was at work.
