<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bqcoins, post: 1647976, member: 5036&quot;]The 1942/41 D is actually a 1942/1941 D.&nbsp; All four digits are doulbed if you look under high enough magnification.&nbsp; Additionally the lower portion of the four does stick out underneath and to the left of the top four.&nbsp; The one is mostly obscured by the two, but the bottom sticks out from under the front edge of the two and the point from the front curl of the two.&nbsp; The rest of the one is usually visible as a shadow to varying degrees.&nbsp; All 1942/41 D dimes were produced by one die which probably cracked somewhere near the end of its life cycle which explains the die crack on several examples from the tip of the cap, across the hair and onto the jaw, terminating just before the neck.&nbsp; You can find other examples on the heritage website, notably one of the two ms67s graded (i can&#039;t remember which one).&nbsp; Furthermore, on the reverse the D is repunched.&nbsp; There is a D to the tilted slightly left visible just outside the D on the left and inside at the top right. </p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/42-41rev1_zpse4c152e6.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>PCGS estimates there are approximately 200 in MS60 or better with only 60 of those grading 65 or higher.&nbsp; The highest currently known are two ms66+ FB from pcgs and two ms67 FB from NGC. PCGS reports 107 in all conditions MS FB and NGC reports 98 I believe.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
