Struggled with this one for awhile. The mm looks right, but couldn't pick up other markers. Sorta/kinda think I got the crack in the head.

Location looks close and resembles the LDS example. Having a hard time with markers.

Also puzzled by comparing the EDS and LDS shown on coppercoins. Seems the EDS example has more die scratches and the RPM is shown weaker than the LDS example. Would think it would be the other way around. Thanks, Doug.

Here is a view of how this die aged as it went through different die stages:

Look at each set of images an note how the mint mark altered with die use?

Yep, later die state; I agree with Halo1st, seems like it should be the other way around.

When first looking I was seeing
Repunched mint mark - RPM
Late die strike - LDS
And the die crack.

Coop's informative post always come thru
