Just back from another work stint and checking out the picks that came in while I was gone. Got this one for about $5 shipped. This isn't an upgrade but these are pretty rare so I figured I'd grab it if went low and it did. Dents on reverse aren't nice but at least you can't really see them from the front. 1929-S/S Lincoln Wheat cent RPM-001, FS-501    |

Here is one I have that a bit fresher die:  But the coin condition is a bit better on your coin. So you can see the RPM. Edited by coop

Nice snag @TB! The underlying S is still quite visible.

Thanks folks! I've looked at a ton of these hunting for DDO-001 (which I've never found) and have only found three of these RPMs along the way.
And Grape, I do like the 2020 bat coin coming up. The Samoan flying fox (Pteropus samoensis) is a great choice for the animal to use on the coin and it's a pretty nice image. Will have to see what it looks like stamped on a coin as it's kind of busy with a lot of detail, but pretty sure it'll look great.
