I will say at first glance no but after closer examination of the wide part of the D I've changed my mind. Report this Post to the Staff
Rackster Pillar of the Community United States 4809 Posts	Posted 03/02/2015 08:56 am I see something too but the pics off the phone are harder to read. Maybe an RPM but also maybe MD. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/02/2015 11:14 am Note the top of the mint mark? The lines that are interfering with the upper horizontal. those are metal striation lines. These occur when the dies move slightly. The edge of the device shows the roughness of the edge. Not a RPM. Just fine die movement. It probably occurs on the tops of the date as well. Here is a coin I found with these die striations. Note the bottoms of the devices in this image. See the lines? They are from metal movement. Report this Post to the Staff
