I agree. MD+1
Same here. I like the older obverse design better.
I'm with our fellow enthusiasts - looks like a normal coin. There may be some evidence of an engraver's touch-up between the upper lip and nose,...
I agree with Sam - Class VIII. These occurred ahead of the single-squeeze era. We see it often enough in Lincoln Cents (LMCs seem particularly...
This was a good thread - I think it will help a number of collectors going forward. Glad it was referenced in another thread. A helpful read....
All good gentlemen. Indeed, there are too many coin casualties. So far, I haven't done that to a meaningful coin (i.e., a collectable I put into...
The 'error coins' I make are purely accidental...each get recirculated as general currency. If I don't check a pocket and there are coins...
As most of us know, many of our new fellow enthusiasts discover coins that look odd or seem to defy logic (e.g., worn on one side but not the...

speaking of which I PMed him a few times over the past couple of months with no luck. Hoping he’s on a break.
Just a note to the newbies: there is a 1943 with a die gouge in the same general area. Be sure of what you have in hand.
I researched this a while back but didn’t note the population numbers being offered. Would be interesting to find out.
I think Jim’s specimen is still a collectible variety and while not the highest D, population will dictate the premium. Maybe there are fewer and...
MD - flat-shelflike. Some play in the die/equipment causing damage at the end of the stroke.
Anyone who CRHs will note that this is a very difficult find in the wild. The coin carries a better premium than most Jefferson nickels, even...
