HumblePie Pillar of the Community United States 1217 Posts	Posted 10/22/2020 10:14 pm Hello Folks, this Coin came from an OBW roll. There seems to be something coming out of the bottom of the D. I could not match it up with any of the known rpm's from VV. There were 5 or 6 other Coins with this same MM in the roll. Thanks for any help! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/23/2020 1:59 pm I think I have a roll of these. I bought it off ebay as a RPM roll, but it was not a RPM. Report this Post to the Staff
HumblePie Pillar of the Community United States 1217 Posts	Posted 10/23/2020 8:13 pm I think it may just be a die gouge? I find them pretty neat and I'm going to keep them. I made this post about half way through the roll after I came across 5 or 6 of them, I ended up getting about 12/14 of them by the time I got to the end of the roll. The roll did produce about 10 Coins with actual rpm's. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/23/2020 8:28 pm Probably a die scratch that was large at one time, not it is just hanging in there, protected by the mintmark. (Die scratches fade fast out in the open fields, but last a lot longer near a device. Even longer if they are inside of the a device. Here is an example I found years ago and thought it was a RPM: Note how much stronger the die scratch is on the center of the mintmark? Weaker at the top and still visible below the mintmark.
