Coins101 Valued Member United States 118 Posts	Posted 08/14/2014 10:05 pm I don't think this is an RPM because the width of the doubling is wider than the S itself. That point towards MD sorry bud. Report this Post to the Staff
AMB Pillar of the Community United States 801 Posts	Posted 08/14/2014 10:07 pm No worries, it was an "eye catcha", thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
AMB Pillar of the Community United States 801 Posts	Posted 08/20/2014 01:02 am I'd like to look at this coin again...just a thought, if it were machine damage or Machine Doubling, wouldn't other devices be affected? Why just the mint mark? I've got new pictures, some different angles,...please take a look and tell me what you think: same opinion/new opinion. Report this Post to the Staff
AMB Pillar of the Community United States 801 Posts	Posted 08/20/2014 01:24 am Here is something on the reverse...now I'm going out on a limb, I'm not good at identifying but I've looked at other memorial listings that reference extra pillars in the Lincoln memorial...is this an extra pillar?

Coins101 Valued Member United States 118 Posts	Posted 08/20/2014 02:14 am No that's not extra pillars sorry. Its actually part of the design. Report this Post to the Staff
AMB Pillar of the Community United States 801 Posts	Posted 08/20/2014 09:14 am Thanks coins101, it just looked so tempting...guess my others are more worn to compare to. What about the S again and my new pics of it? Still think it's machine damage? I threw some new pics up to get a different view. See above. Especially the tail of the S, take a look at that.

Coins101 Valued Member United States 118 Posts	Posted 08/20/2014 1:01 pm Yeah I still think the S is machine damage. RPMs can be a little tricky from time to time. Report this Post to the Staff
AMB Pillar of the Community United States 801 Posts	Posted 08/20/2014 2:33 pm You're right! Especially the "S". Thx again. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/20/2014 3:23 pm The last image above shows a damaged punch lines that are above the lower loop of the "S". The punch was used a lot longer after even this appearance. The way you can tell it is from the punch is that many dies/denominations will show this until the punch is replaced.
