I don't think there are any RPM's for that year. Some of the mint marks are just sloppy. This is the worst one I have seen sell on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-S-1C-D...047675.l2557It shows that it sold for $1000.00 I hope the guy can get his money back and learns something from this.

I suspect in this case the seller and the buyer are one and the same - the buyer has no Feedback either. So why exactly is the coin here worth more than one cent? What am I missing? There's a little bit of a die chip in the mint mark, but that's the only thing I can see that is anomalous. |

I don't see any reason to believe that it is worth more than one cent.

I recently went through a BU roll of these. I found five or six with heavy MD on the date and some mintmarks. Wow, $20 each! I wouldn't have the nerve to list them.... Maybe just an auction for 99 cents for those who have the interest in collecting these and know it is only MD.
I didn't find any RPM's. Is it just me or do others have difficulty looking for "S" RPM's? The "D"'s are fairly easy to spot.

All three examples I posted are to the west. You can see the spread in the centers of the mint marks.  Although the spread is not all that strong, but it shows up on all areas of the mint mark and not on the date. So it is a listed RPM. |

I have one to several rolls each of 1969-S/S 1c RPM#s 1, 2, 3 (CONECA), so whomever I purchased them from did good! I never get that lucky!

So, the 69 S's don't have added value? I thought it looked like there was some doubling on the date and a repunched mint mark, too. I'm just learning, so, feel free to elaborate!

d_dob,
Do you mind me asking what you paid for these?

There were 10 - 1969 S's (which I didn't know were in there) in a box which also had a 1909 VDB in it along with about 30 other coins - mostly Lincoln - for 7.50. I still think I got a good deal. :) I'm very much enjoying checking them out with a loupe. As I said, I'm new to collecting, so I'm just trying to learn right now. I have been doing online research, and not just ebay lol, too! |
