    I found this 1944 at my local shop and was louping it out when I noticed a little something odd, so I purchased it and took it home for further study.

    Besided the high state of preservation and the fully split bands this caught my eye and sure enough right there in my cherrypicker's was the corresponding picture a 1944 d/d with a URS of 5 (16 to 31 known). Sweet and the second mm is almost as clear as the first!

    Neat find! It's fun when you can pick these scarcities up for no premium.

    I echo covert coins! Where can you find a cherrypickers guide? Everytime I think I'll just do some research and right down the rare stuff dates; I end up hearing of more and more scarcities.

    be sure to get both volumes, or at least one now and one later. vol 1 is through nickels, and vol 2 starts at half dimes.
