You never know what you'll find inside a mint set. This Kennedy has flees, dandruff or something! Looks like some kind if bug. Apparently the U.S. Mint production floors, where they package mint and proof sets is not exactly a clean-room.

Here is one of several 1971-D RPMs. It was the first I grabbed and not long after the battery in the phone went dead. I will work on getting pics of a better one. But for now this will do...

I also am including pics of an interesting looking machine doubled MM on 1971-D.

Earle42, nice RPM on that 1971 D Kennedy half! Is that RPM listed? If not, I would submit it to get it listed.

I never looked it up.

I am in the (very slow for me) process of going through a lot of old dated, and common, rolls of different denominations. When I find something it immediately is dipped into acetone and then goes into a2X2 so I can get on to the next coin in the roll. I don't want to take the time to stop and research each when I find them or I would never get through a roll!

Until I am done, which will likely be a long time from now, I do not plan on taking the time to type all of them. Besides I can see it being enjoyable after the discovery phase is over to then start an ID'ing phase.

Another thing hindering me is the cost to get the find listed. I understand why the cost is needed to send a new find in, and I also understand its great that others would be able to benefit from the recorded info. But I cannot justify spending the money - especially when I am looking at more than a few unlisted ones already, and I am nowhere near the end of checking everything yet.

I see Earle42. I'm sorry I asked. I hope I didn't make you angry as it wasn't my intentions.

Earle42...your 71D RPM looks like the CONECA listed 71D RPM-002.

@Errors and Varieties,
Oops - I think I owe YOU an apology...
I was not upset or in a negative mood of any kind at all. I am sorry my post made it sound that way! I was just explaining why I have not reported any new varieties I have found, and why I decided to check them all after I (someday!) get done looking through everything.

People who know me tell me they have very rarely ever seen me upset about anything. But I am glad you offered an apology, though not needed , to make sure things got cleared up

@ atrox - thanks for the ID - I appreciate it & will write it on the 2X2 when I get set up again for a round of pics for this thread.

I like that Doubled Die Obverse Coop. That's a very nice one that anyone would be proud to own. Thanks for sharing. :-)

I guess it's a Magician's coin but it doesn't seem or sound hollow. The seam is on the reeded edge but it looks and feels like a regular solid half. Could you cut a coin in half like that? Why would you? ...and how?

Earle42, those are some great finds you have! My favorite Doubled Die Obverse you own is the 1974 D. My favorite error coin is that Cud you have.
