<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jtwax, post: 9691, member: 696&quot;]Hey Dave,</p><p><br /></p><p>You are correct in seeing the &quot;horned&quot; T&#039;s on the war era issues in TRUST. I would imagine that that is just the type set the Mint decided to use at that time and there probably is no specific answer for why they actually used them. If you look at 1942 and 1943 (PDS) issues you will notice that almost all of these coins exhibit a split serif on those fancy T&#039;s caused by master hub doubling. Although it is technically a doubled die, but because it is master doubling, it brings no prremium and may be the reason the Mint decided to stear away from using that type set in later years.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the 64-D, if I&#039;m looking at the right thing, to the west of the Mint mark it appears to have a remnant of the Mint mark there, which looks like some extreme mechanical doubling to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
