Description

The 1942-S Jefferson nickel has a bisecting rim to rim die crack on its reverse die. The anomaly starts at the rim above the second U in PLURIBUS, through the mintmark and into the dome of Monticello. The die crack then jogs to the right exiting the build to the left of the E in the word MONTICELLO. It continues downward in between the E and N of CENT and ends in the opposing rim just left of the O in OF. Though similar to RRDC-5c-1942S-01, there are differences between the two reverses. 02/01/2014.
