Hflirn Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 02/23/2014 02:13 am Just a quickie. Is the 1883/2 the only recognized RPD Shield nickel? I have a different date RPD. Pretty obvious too. On opposite side of other date. I have books but are outdated and can't seem to find an up to date website either Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 02/23/2014 03:59 am No, there is also a 79/8. I believe the 78 is also an 8/7 but I don't think it is normally mentioned or listed because I believe all of them are overdates. At one time they listed a 69/8 but I think those have been reclassified as a 69/9. Now those are overdates like the 83/2. There are LOTS of RPD (repunched dates) in the series. In fact there probably isn't a single year in the series without business strikes that have RPD's. Report this Post to the Staff

Also while the 78/7 and 79/8 are each just a single variety, the 83/2 is found on five different obv dies. Report this Post to the Staff
oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 02/24/2014 07:08 am I picked up a 1869 RPD FS-1305 a couple months ago, with Conder, they (RPD's) are more abundant than overdates. Edited by oih82w8 02/24/2014 07:08 am Report this Post to the Staff
