Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 02/25/2007 01:47 am The second cent is showing some Mechanical Doubling on the profile and MM and a slightly different MM location nothing to add value to the coin. otherwise the coins are identical.

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 02/26/2007 3:30 pm Either could be RPMs, impossible to tell from that distance. Other than that, Mechanical Doubling, striking pressure, die polishing, or die wear could make some of the details look a bit different, but all 1958 cents were struck with the same design.

Moonshine Valued Member United States 258 Posts	Posted 02/27/2007 11:15 am Hello, I hope this image is better. Someday maybe I will get this computer stuff figured out. I Keep seeing on this coin, the {D} and the bottom of the letters in liberty. I have a old TASCO microscope I cobbled up with a light to get a closer look, threw this it seems to be a dd or DDD south. Is that possible? Confused again, Moonshine Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 02/28/2007 12:06 pm That looks like an RPM, but your image would have to be taken through some sort of microscope to tell for sure. Macrophotography (whole coin shots) just aren't going to cut it, no matter how much or little you know about photography or computers. I couldn't take a shot of an RPM that would be convincing without a microscope. I would suggest using my site and a loupe to see if you can identify either of your coins as known RPMs. Go to https://www.coppercoins.com then look for the 'die variety search' link close to the upper left corner and click on it. Put the date in the resulting page and click 'submit'. It will come up with a list of all the die varieties we currently have photographed for the date. You can use the photos of the attributes and markers to match up your coins. Good luck! Report this Post to the Staff
