Cross References:  CONECA: 1-O-I, Cherrypickers: FS-01-1941-101 (018), Breen: #2155, Crawford: CDDO-001, Coppercoins: 1941P-1DO-001

Comments:  The secondary images fade as you move towards the rim on those design elements closest to the rim indicating that the misaligned hubbing took place on an early hubbing of the die.  This characteristic helps in distinguishing this variety from 1941 1¢ WDDO-002 which is also a Class I variety.
