Nice find. The "D" is a tough one. I have 4 from Philly, but still looking for one from the Denver mint.

@Silviosi Wow! That is very rare and to think how many many have been lost or damaged beyond recognition in both the P and especially the D. Thanks for the information on the numbers!!

@DMN: always I say: Coins come. coins go and only those with future visions will have. Like the romans say in ancient time: Veni, Vidi, Vice (translate: I come, I win, I go).

I will be looking much closer at any 88's and 89's for sure. Thanks for the thorough explanation of these pennies.

@coinhunter58 the 89s aren't affected by this, only the 88s with the reverse of 89 are worth a premium.

 @Coinhunter58 Make sure that you be on the lookout for the double ear 88 also.  |

Congratulations on a nice find. "Rare" does not translate to valuable.
RDV-6 is the "Red-headed stepchild" of the transitional world.
Not a Cherry Pickers variety [AFAIK] like WAMs and CLAMs.

This mean something like 0.0001%. Yes it is a small child  , here only John find one, I look from 30 years for, probably D. Bowers have one or see upon in time one, and etc. You talk about Cherry what? Sorry how many varieties they list there? I think you spend the money for a wrong book. Me I regret spend 9.5 $ for this un-useful book. You give a nice laugh before sleep. Edited by silviosi

Even if that is so, the average die makes about a million coins so that would be 1/5253 which is closer to .002%. Edited by CentSation

This is cherry pickers variety fs-901, also coneca listed as rdv-006, wexler LMRD-006 and can also be found on page 100 of the book strike it rich with pocket change 5th edition which I recommend to anyone to pick up who is searching these type of varieties. The doubled ear DDO is also in there. Certainly later you can pick up cherrypickers guides and use the free information on the web sites beyond strike it rich book to have a more complete list of what you can look for, just keep in mind that many varieties can have low value and so those additional resources may be more for the advanced who just wants to have the knowledge of what exists as a reference. As far as value, strike it rich lists value circulated at 50-75, uncirculated 125-200. When in high grade, a coin can be graded and in those higher conditions is where prices can go up to much higher ranges beyond these as these are for typical conditions found in pocket change.
