I have been reading everything I can about this error and still am having trouble figuring this out for sure. I have a few of these cents that I have found CRH and two of them seem to possibly be the inverted mm. Can you more experienced people tell me what I have here? I did not show the whole coin pictures as they are not needed. Please take a look. There are pictures of two coins attached. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the info. and the link to the different types/years. I was assuming these varieties were representing the inverted mm. Now I see. Thanks!
