<p>[QUOTE=&quot;asciibaron, post: 223323, member: 8566&quot;]i have been looking closely at my 1942-D and it appears to be a double die.&nbsp; the 4 and 2 show artifacts of each number under and slightly offset of the current number.&nbsp; the face of Liberty has an outline from the top of the cap to the truncated bust.&nbsp; i wish i had a macro lens for my DSLR so i could show you what i&#039;m seeing.</p><p><br /></p><p>at first i thought it was a mechanical DD, but it really appears that the die was doubled - anyone have a record of this double die - the Lange book makes no mention of much of anything other than the 2 over 1 in 42.</p><p><br /></p><p>i think i scored big if this proves to be a non-mechanical double die.&nbsp; when i bought it, i noticed it looked slightly different than the others, but i wasn&#039;t sure why.&nbsp; i can only see the doubling with the 10x glass and it really stands out in bright light.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>i&#039;ll try to get a picture tonight with my wife&#039;s digicam - it has a macro feature, but the camera isn&#039;t that great.</p><p><br /></p><p>-Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
