I don't quite understand which part represents the repunch. Can one of you guys spell it out for me?
Neat to find a proof in circulation! =)

I'm with Brand on this one. Unless it is hiding in the shadows, I do not see it, even though the mm location looks pretty good. The re-punch is counterclockwise, and I have pointed out what appears to be the RPM on the listing and I don't see it on yours. That being said, it's always cool to find an impaired proof in the wild though.  -makecents-

Honestly, I had no idea either, I was just looking at the mm placement and the fact that inside the bottom of the S looked the same. IMO, VV is often difficult to know exactly what to look at! I'll check the locations you (-makecents-) indicated when I get home. |

Yeah, one of the drawbacks to the variety catalogs is that most of the images were taken in an age where storage space was a premium. There were also limitations in digital microscope technology at the time. So the images were a bit fuzzy to begin with, or they were shrunk down to fit the website restrictions.
Sometimes, I wonder if there are original full resolution image files stored on CDs at Wexler, CONECA, Variety Vista, etc. that could be remastered for the listings.

I don't see anything below the S, but, my eyes don't anything below the S on V.V. either. Don't know if the other two places qualify it as RPM-001    |
