I notice some die deterioration in the lettering of LIBERTY and IGWT on your closeups. But this die stage is MDS, probably EMDS (everything looks strong with the subtle details of the devices). With LDS, the outer devices start to spread to the rim and VLDS, outer devices begin to spread/puddle around the edges of the letter/number/etc. Also, the presence of chips and cracks become more abundant. The Obverse and Reverse dies may be paired set since they both show about the same level of die wear. That's actually a very nice specimen for an original Steelie. Early die stage, well struck, and mostly problem free.
Varietyvista.com the 1943 P D and S had so many ddo's and ddr's they are just about worthless as far as a value or premium would go. The specimen shown has a huge marker on the reverse that proves its a doubled die....very insignificant but yes do your homework and youll find it. 14 ddo's 15 ddr's for the 43 d alone
Nice find like Mr Mader pointed out in post #8. Put it a 2 x 2 flip and add it to your collection.
