Quote: but on the bust it has a die crack instead of the gouge. That's why I added nearing Stage E. Stages D and E and yours show a die crack. Stage D showed the chip starting to develop where yours is more developed. Stage E showed a gouge where yours did not. Was thinking the stage of yours falls in between D and E or should I be more technical and say Stage D and a 1/2.  Thanks, Doug. Actually after thinking on it what if the gouge was polished off. Would that make it a Stage F? Do you see any other markers associated with it? Any Die Chips on Column # 1?  re-edit to fix typos.

The reverse die markers seem to bounce around a bit through out the die stages. The obverse die may possibly been paired with more than one reverse die. Reverse image would be needed to do comparison from here. Thanks, Doug.

Look down at the Stage & Marker chart on the Variety Vista link. At Stage D there was a new reverse die.

I know there are worse or more important things to think and worry about at this time for our fellow Americans down in the hurricane/flood hit area of Texas but man, that is a back environment for coins. I wonder what kind of preparation coin collectors took to protect their coins.

I've seen dies like these that have the lines in the center, but sometimes they are just older die scratches. If you rotate the coin 90 degrees, you can sometimes still see the connecting die scratches more clearer. So if you take an image at 90 turned CW, then it might show me more if that is the case. Die scratches inside of the mint mark center stay stronger for a longer time. So lets see what the rotated image might show first to see of this is the case or not? (send me an email when you post it in case I miss your new images) Please the address from the screen number on the address bar above.

I "think" I saw this one on Variety Vist a few minutes ago looking for a '61-D of mine. I remember the die chip between the 6 & 1. Let me try to find it again.
Edit: Didn't read the old posts. Sorry. I even posted to this thread. What a dummy I am, lol!

Uruman, are you okay? Hurricane Harvey hit pretty hard I heard. Is your house okay or is it destroyed? I hope it didn't get destroyed.

Error and Varietys, thanks for your concern it's very much appreciated , my house didn't get much water in it , but my daughter's that is 15 minutes from my house and next to the levy that broke is seating on 5 to 7 feet of water and what is even worst ( beside not having raising water insurance) is that they won't be let in the house for about 3 months or until the water drains down to about 1 foot outside on the street.

Uruman, I'm glad you're okay. Too bad about your daughter's house, but she can live with you until she can move back out into a house. I'm glad you are okay.

Thanks for the extra images. I feel it is a match to 1961-D RPM-003http://www.varietyvista.com/02b%20L...1DRPM003.htmNote the stage 'E' images of the date, you can see the same die chip between the 61. Nice find. These images were a lot better. Now you know what we need to see on images.
