Sorry for the garbage-quality image, but iPads have pretty garbage cameras. The line is 101% raised, so it is not a scratch. I would be pretty surprised if this wasn't an RPM. Opinions?

I'm not so sure... found nothing on CC's 85 listings to match. That "line to NW of MM I think is a die chip, not part of a DD. You point to "?" NE of MM. There's many varieties(9 or so) that have a "ghost D" to North (failure of attempt to polish off)

Need a whole lot better pix to tell, back off a couple inches, try lighting...to much flash?

PM me with full res pix

This is the closest I could get without it going to grainy garbage.

Sorry, I can't tell...too much gunk. Try washing it with dish soap and toothbrush, clean inside MM too. Did it look like any of the above pix?

I'll try scrubbing it a bit. I'm still holding onto hope cause I see a ghostly something-or-other sitting above the MM. The picture quality went into the garbage can because the optimizer wasn't cooperating.

good way to turn it into a details coin...

pure ivory soap maybe... but a tooth brush? anything abrasive in the junk is going to hairline the surfaces, might as well use sandpaper.

I think I see it. It's North and rotated CW. Here's what I see:

I found one on VV that is very close but yours appears to be stronger:

Wade, no may not be the best, but "who cares?" Details on a coin in EF! Will only help in determining "ghost images on RPM's (HINT)
