Same rpm as yesterday's post. Different coin this one VLDS. Die chip in upper interior masks upper secondary line. No triple upper serf, but faint outlines of 3 mint marks present. The area around MM and nostril less detailed than yesterdays coin. Die cracks on skull nicely pronounced including rpm 2's crack from O in GOD.

Yellow arrow points to die chip. Black arrow to lower interior secondary MM. Black arrow to old die cracks shown in CC rpm 002 photos.

I'm still thinking this is a different die and probably a new listing. In the 1950's they overused the dies to the point that they had to fall apart in order to retire.
I found one with 9 die cracks one time.

It says 8 on the tag, but I missed #9 on the neck.

This may be a new listing but, *^#! markers make it look like rpm 2. Can't contact CC, get message not receiving emails. Could send it to Brian Ribar, he is good with rpm's. I have ordered his set of Wexler 1956D rpm's so I have the coins and not just pictures to compare. Seems Wexler has numbered many minor rpm's.
