Bison101 New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 06/29/2014 10:00 pm So I've decided to look through my collection for any error coins after I found out that there were some RPM varieties for the Ike dollar series. Long story short, I went through all my Ike dollars and have found one coin of interest. The problem is, I can't tell if it has a doubled mint mark, if it is some other type of common error or if it's even an error at all. Thoughts? P.S. Sorry for the bad picture. I still haven't figured out how to get close up shots of coins with a camera. Here's a photo that I found on the internet for comparison Edited by Bison101 06/29/2014 10:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 06/30/2014 12:44 am Wait for other(s) to confirm, but rookie here - seeing what looks like as you described a filled mint mark. The center post that forms the inner portion of the mint mark was broken or chipped away thus filling the cavity. Believe this is an error, but a common one. The comparison pic is not filled. Can not comment on RPM status with current pics. Would need something a little more close up. An Ike or RPM expert may can add something more definitive on any bicentennial RPM's. Thanks, Doug.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/30/2014 3:46 pm The mint mark looks like it was either partially filled with grease (preventing the formation of the lower SE part) or circulation damaged. The last image is showing machine damage on the "6". Report this Post to the Staff
