My dad bought a microscope, not intended for coins, but for another one of his projects he's working on and it works PERFECT for coins.

You tell me. No idea here...

I don't think this last one is an RPM, but looks like a die chip that got on the D mintmark or something. I think there's another one up above that is similar; a die chip.

However, there's a lamination issue on the last one, that might be the cause of the mintmark looking strange.

The only one I'm most certain on but I'm probably wrong is the 4th one-fifth looks like md and the first looks like it took a hit-the other 2 I'm unsure about? Let's see how I did lol

1 MD
2 Unsure looks like damage
3 Damage
4 looks like a winner
5 MD
6 looks like a some damage but could stem from the lamination issue

Im not an expert with nickels but this is my opinion and a strong one.

Keep in mind all of these were found CRHing over several years and I put aside because I saw the mintmark to be strange with my naked eye. It wasn't until last week that I looked at these & took pics :)
