    If these are the Phillidelphia minted coins they are not the overdate. The second one needs better pictures if it is a D mint.

    Incorrect, there is a 1942/41-P Dime and a 1942/41-D Dime. Check your Red Book.

    I'd re read my comment...maybe I wasn't clear enough. I was saying that they are not the Philadelphia overdate... and if the bottom piece is a Denver mint coin we need better pictures to determine if it is the Denver overdate because I see a little stair stepping on the bottom of the 4... It's probably the picture and is most likely not the overdate either.

    What exactly was wrong with what LD stated? He said what I was thinking. The 42/1-D overdate is not as obvious as the 42/1. That's why it took 20 years or more to identify.

    I have several hundred French medals in my collection. I love Marianne!

    No need to feel embarrassed. I can't speak French. To me, Oui! Oui! means someone has to go to the bathroom.

    He posted these on another forum along with a picture of the reverse. It is a Philadelphia issue. (oddly the photos were not as clear as they are here. In that forum th 1 nder the 2 appeared much stronger. Looks like new pictures but the coin shows the same die scratch up to the lower left corner of the 1 and the coming out of the upper loop of the 9 just above the 3:00 position.) He was told there that it was not the 42/1 overdate as well

    I've dealed with alot of 42/1's, and you can pretty much spot that 1 a mile away, its actually pretty amazing...

    Off topic kinda but how much would you pay for a MS details Cleaned 42/1?

    That depends, as i do not buy cleaned coins i dont have much experience with it, since there is no real price guide for a cleaned coin it lies in the eyes and pockets of the buyer, I have seen cleaned coins go for the price of a coin several grades lower or in some cases 50% less than an uncleaned coin

    Depends on how it was cleaned usually knock down grades because that's what it will sell as a raw coin or it's net grade.
    From the net grade you look up the value of the coin greysheet or numismedia then you offer 40-50% of that net grades value.
    That's how it works. Cruel but the only fair way.
