Both Krause and Charlton make references to a "re-engraved date" on the Newfoundland cents of 1940 and 1941, however neither source explains how to tell a re-engraved date from an original date. What are the telltale indicators of the former?

Thanks in advance...

You got the right guy watching

That was quick.

I was clueless, of course.

Both are moderately scarce in circulated and mucho scarce in mintstate. The 1940 is scarcer in circulated, but surprisingly, the 1941 seems to be scarcer in MS.

BTW, welcome back Rob. We missed you when the work stuff got in the way.

Thanks. I missed it here when work got in the way, too.

It has a way of doing that.
