CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 06/04/2015 11:52 pm RPM = mintmark over mintmark it was repunched into the die, on RPM coins up until 1989. Edited by CoinMasters 06/04/2015 11:59 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/05/2015 12:00 am Did you read the box in the description? It mentions this die is also 1960D-1MM-100 (RPM) It is not a RPD. Those ended in the early part of the 1900's. (sorry I don't remember the year) They are more of a 19th century thing where each individual digit was punched into the die. (no master die at that time) Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/05/2015 12:18 am Note on the coppercoins site this quote: Quote: A small date hubbing over a large date hubbing shows in the date, LIBERTY, and in some areas of the motto. This die is also listed as 1960D-1MM-100. This year the small date was replaced with the large date design. So the large date hub was used on the first hubbing, then a small date hub was used a different time. They didn't get the small date hubs away from the staging area and they go used by mistake. Thus the small over large date die was created. Then it was also a RPM when the mint mark was placed to high onto the devices. (keep in mind they used the mint mark punch quickly, thus creating so many RPMs this year) Report this Post to the Staff
