What?

 

i was thinking of this coin and took and copied your pic and overlaid it with a 1948 penny.the 8 overlays pefect.it does not look altered from the pic and close up but it is very dirty.most likely a problem happend on the die.i have many coins on here i post that are very very strange but just not collectable.sorry just keep searching and it will pay off trust me

 

I took all three coins and put your coin as an overlay. Maybe this will help you see it...

 

1948 altered date!

 

FWIW,

This is helping me, a beginner!

 

Just edited a picture of a 1948 on my computer to look like your 1943.

 

I will have to agree with Jim on this one. Sorry.

 

I think he means this......

Copper 1943

This is funny, just bought a copper plated 43 from my coin guy's misc box yesterday! The date on yours was a '48, saw one years ago in a shop and the dealer said he used to get a few evey year in the 60's & 70's.

 

ya, i was referring to that, and thanks for telling me, shucks, i was pretty worked up though.

 

i agree with Jim

The 3 on the 43 should tail below the # line and this 3 is clearly even with the # line.

 

Yes, too many scam artist on a valuable coins.. specially those very easy date to altered and mintmark...And I am feeling safe on my AVATAR...1995 Dbl Denom a Key date..
