Also, when under the RMS 4X, you can see a doubling line around Abe's image, similar to Machine Doubling. Thoughts/opinions welcome and thanks. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B...jRWllSDBxcU0 Report this Post to the Staff

Roberthas Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 04/10/2016 11:35 pm It looks like it has a D over D on the mint-mark the one on the bottom appears to be clocked counterclockwise to the top one. Just my perspective, after a quick look at the photos. Its a nice coin, too bad about the the 6 o'clock rust/corrosion. Robert Report this Post to the Staff

Roberthas Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 04/11/2016 1:42 pm Coop, I do not understand why you are dismissing the image I have attempted to highlight in the pic I uploaded. Did you not see it? If you did, could you please explain your reasoning? Thanks in advance, Robert Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/11/2016 10:14 pm A RPM raises from the field because it is punched into the die. It is not flat looking. Note on the SE side of the mint mark the mint mark in that area is irregular. Not a RPM. Report this Post to the Staff
Roberthas Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 04/11/2016 10:47 pm What about in the case when it is called a "shadow" image, such as in a portion of the image below? Some of this image is raised and some of it is not. This is listed as an RPM and I have seen other images of RPMs, or OMMs that were just "ghosts" or "shadows". What is to be said of these, these are recognized by a company in the certification business? Thanks, Robert Edited by Roberthas 04/11/2016 10:48 pm Report this Post to the Staff
