Grelko Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 09/23/2020 09:24 am I found it in a customer wrapped roll. The 957 in the date looks thicker and also the left side of the O in ONE on reverse. Sorry about the glare on the mint mark in the last photo. I was trying to get a better look at the split serifs. Could I get a grade if possible? Report this Post to the Staff

SensibleSal66 Valued Member United States 79 Posts	Posted 09/23/2020 09:46 am I think I see Mechanical Doubling but the D looks like a RPM or it's the lighting . What's that called ? Hmm. I'll wait for more posts . Do you own a microscope (USB ) ? Report this Post to the Staff

The lighting always looks a bit strange for some reason. It's probably because I take a screenshot of my monitor, since I don't have a memory card for the scope yet. The pictures on the scope screen look better, but going from a 7" to a 32" screen, it gets a bit pixelated. So for now, I screenshot, then use the Paint program and downsize/crop the photo. For the other pictures, I used a jeweler's loupe and an Ipad. Edit - Once I put it in a 2x2, I noticed that the reverse is off by a few degrees, but I haven't made anything to check that yet. Edit - Nevermind haha, the front was slightly crooked. Edited by Grelko 09/23/2020 10:19 am Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/23/2020 10:30 am This one looks like a RPM, that should be listed. I didn't see it on V.V or Coppercoins. But it was stronger than many listed on CC's. You might like to consider submitting this to coppercoins when you get three submissions to send in.

I'm still waiting for them to Email me back from the first time. Once I get another 1 or 2 that could be submitted, I will send them another Email. Report this Post to the Staff
