<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kSigSteve, post: 3289337, member: 72008&quot;]Very glad to have this thread surface. It was always believed there were 6 dies used due to the 1944 having two variants. After doing some more digging it appears a 7th die has surfaced. This is very interesting because the second 1944 was always thought to be the 6th die.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is where it gets interesting. Credit to Loco and Rackster for these finds. These are photos from the CCF. It confirms 1939 has two variants as well. This creates the reoccurring mystery that when Henning spoke of a 6th die it could actually be a 6th date which has not surfaced yet. </p><p><br /></p><p>Loco found a 1939 with the looped R known to exist.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]869702[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Rackster found a 1939 without the looped R and also has the die chip as mentioned. This find was back in February and had not known about it until this morning.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]869703[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I would love to connect with Bob on this as he is the Henning expert over on CCF but has not been active since September of 2018. Last I heard he was writing a book on the hennings and had around 100+ of them in his inventory. This is why I love numismatics![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
