The NGC Coin Explorer website comments that spotting and marks are common throughout the 1940's. I suppose better examples could be found. With a...
Even though each of these is full red, there are still variations between the mints as to exactly what shade of red they are. [ATTACH][ATTACH]...

Also the vendor's photos, and it's in the mail. Also hope it looks as good to me when it gets here. The reverse die looks a bit weak by...

Found it! Just arrived, completing my 1913 Lincoln year set. The others are in post #4219. [ATTACH] This is a raw coin, so I have made my own...
