<p>[QUOTE="V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2526586, member: 71723"]I'd call it, if anything, initially hubbed from a 5 and then hubbed by a 4, like the 1942/1 dime, but with less even pressure. No one re-dated a working die. The position of what looks like part of a 5 is all wrong. Too far right. Besides, has ANYONE ever authenticated a 1964/5 overdate? Anywhere? Not that I know of. Far more likely is you're seeing die breakages around the 4.</p><p><br /></p><p>What's the latest overdate ever authenticated?
