Here's my 1946-S IMM-001 (with an inverted Ball Serif 'S')

I tried to take some pictures of various parts of the obverse and reverse as I cannot recall every seeing any images other than the date and mintmark posted anywhere. I found what (I believe) to be some old die scratches above the end of LIBERTY extending up behind Lincoln's head. There's DDD near the rim in EPU as well.

I could only post six photos at once and I didn't post one with the full date and mintmark (oops.) I am also including two comparison photos with BJ's example from Traildies as an overlay. My coin is obviously a later die state.

Hey Jason,
I checked my one and only 46S and came up with the normal upright S.
Oh well, back to the search. :)

I'm sure there is one out there with your name on it!
Probably an early die state...:)

Great looking coin and photos. I have just one of those but not nearly in this condition.
