The post that connects to the die sometimes when it breaks off, it takes part of the base of the post part from the die. (breaking off lower) When this happens a void is opened, so when the mint mark is shaped, the missing post area and the void of the die, towers over the mint mark. That is what you are seeing. The that area was hit by another coin and altered that area on the mint mark. Not a rpm.

I sent James Wiles an update on the die. Sent the side by side and how he might include this on his site. He may want to see. But we'll wait for him to respond first.

Nothing yet. I haven't checked the site to see if he added it or not yet.

http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20...0DRPM001.htmTake a look at the pictures he has up there, try to get pictures of all the same areas and same orientation as the pictures he had up already. If not than you can send the coin directly to him and he may have the stage listed
