<p>[QUOTE=&quot;10gary22, post: 867773, member: 23626&quot;]I have learned a lot about this coin from the guys here in the last few days. And I can share this with you. The last 1 is actually displaced by the hook on a shotgun wrapping machine. Evidently these coins were rolled early and damaged before much toning occurred. There are many of them out there, because nearly everyone it seems has one and a pic they can post. The machine damage seems to be very uniform, because these look so much alike. It should also be noted that there were NO over date punches on Wheat Cents (per info in the forum).</p><p><br /></p><p>It is still a neat coin in my opinion, because it certainly starts more conversation than the normal 1941. The consensus here seems that they have no market value, but should be hung on to. </p><p><br /></p><p>Your coin is a bit different than the others I have seen pics of, because your 1 is not radically tilted. The thread (mis-named by yours truly &quot;1944 slant 1 cent&quot;) will give you all the information the pleasant experts here provided. Even when presented with obviously idiotic queries about the process that inflicts the damage. There are more pics on that thread.</p><p><br /></p><p>Cool coin, great find IMHO.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
