<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dm1299, post: 19539, member: 1416&quot;]Check out Jason Taylor&#039;s web site on Jefferson Nickels. It&#039;s great. See this URL: <a href="http://varietynickels.com/diechanges.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://varietynickels.com/diechanges.htm" rel="nofollow">http://varietynickels.com/diechanges.htm</a>.&nbsp; It show each die change. The first two pictures are the reverse of 1940 and the revers of 1939. You may want to click on the pictures to enlarge.&nbsp; The reverse of 40 are the Type II steps. The reverse of 1938 are the type I steps.&nbsp; In 1939, there were nickels struck from with either reverse.&nbsp; 1939- Type II is more common. 1939-D is about 50/50 and 1939-S, Type I is more common.&nbsp; Basically, Type I steps are wavy and less distinct. Type II steps are straight and more chiseled.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the case of proofs, there is a rare 1939 proof with reverse of 1940 and a rare 1940 proof with reverse of 1938. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps. </p><p><br /></p><p>Dan Marion[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
