Oh, good. thanks.

 

This is a hard one but it is listed and can be found with the right reference. Most of you are missing something right in front of you. Think outside the box . ....

 

I can't wait to see the answer, but I'll bow out here. I have exhausted all references I have access to. I'm stumped on the variety. Good luck all!

 

You can't bow out you're a variety collector .

 

Ok, one more try.

 

There's a lot of references here ........

 

I think I got it.

 

We have a winner Jay got both correct 1942 P WDDR-003 PF-66

 

Jay PM me your address and I will get your prizes off to you.
Thanks everyone for playing

 

Congrats Jay! Beat me by seconds hahha! I had 12 tabs open about nickel varietys and grading nickels, and I learned quite a bit of information about nickels. Very fun contest Paddy!

 

I will post photos and information later, it's dinner time here lol but must say ace and Jay were seconds apart with their PM's with the correct answer. Since it was a photo finish Jay will take 1st prize and ace will be sent a runner up for working his butt off to win the contest .
Congrats to both!!!! Paddy54

 

It was fun, thanks Paddy! Good job ace! Good job everyone else! PM sending shortly.

 

Ooh that's rough...I had everything but forgot to mention the P because I'm mainly a Lincoln collector...

Well, I suppose "close" doesn't count except in horseshoes and hand grenades.

 

Here are the images yes it's an 1942 P WDDR -003 Very Rare in Pf-66 That dot the die chip on Jefferson's neck is the PUP for this DDR see this thread https://www.cointalk.com/threads/he...-p-pf-66-the-next-an-1945-d-ms-66-5fs.260643/

 

BTW a note about the winners one is a YN whom came in second and Jay is a variety dinosaur
Maybe another contest coming up soon!

 

I didn't know ace was a YN. I'll gladly give up the prize to help out a new collector.

 

I think there's an error on the listing.

The gouge matches up, but the listing says type 1 planchet. Has to be a typo.

 

I appreciate the offer but u did win fair and square haha!!! I actually found paddy's old thread on it! But i had the error i was lowballing the grade so bad because of the steps not being there. The highest grade i guessed (until final guess) was PF63

Yes it's a type ll and would love to know the true value on this coin . I can't recall ever seeing one for sale.
I know they are very rare
