Found this one today and it appears very much like the 1949S 1MM-001. However it does not show any of the markers as shown on the site photo with the exception of the MM, The reverse does not have the die crack to the right wheat either. My thoughts are it must be a LEDS or EMDS with a reverse die change from the EDS. I did a layover and the MM location matches as well.
Only one photo so I hope the description helps some.
Any thoughts as to if I on the right track or not.

It sure seems to be the right one Steven. The absence of markers could be the die state or reverse die before the crack.

Thanks for the help. I checked the coneca site and they show a reverse die change at MDS so I guess that would account for it.

The die flow under the last 9 seems to match my coin. I would guess yours is earlier as the die flow isn't as heavy as my coin. Nice find!

Looks right to me. I'll vouch for that one being 1949S-1MM-001.
