1943-S Steel penny

mach19

Going through some steel penny's, I found A 1943-S with the "S" doubled to the right bottom. Does anyone know anything about this error? I will try to post a picture later.

1943s/s rpm's are quite collectible and somewhat valuable, as they are scarce or rare across the board. The zinc plating and die fatigue effect on steel cents often give the impression of an rpm, however.

This also has a blemish to the right side of the "4" in the date, A slight die crack under the chin & A die crack on the reverse going from the "O" in ONE to the "E" in CENTS??

CONECA variety master listings. See if those markers match up with any listed s/s rpm's for 1943 1c.

Does it look like this?

Yes

I also have a 1943 with a indentation to the left of the "1", instead of convex, This void is concave. Same size as the "1". Any info would help. Thanks in advance

Is this coin worth anything?

I have kept any steel cents I have come across for years now... Not common any more. I also have a couple of old bank wrapped rolls in amazing condition... looked in one, have not opened the other. Cheers, RickO

Is this a question? If so, condition is everything with these coins. They can range from being worth 50 cents (circulated, ungraded) to several thousand dollars (MS68, and 68+).
