truman1404 Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 09/21/2017 4:16 pm I think this is the 001 mint mark on copper coins, but I'm not 100% sure. It also states something about MDS and LDS is there a way to tell the die state from these photos? Thanks, Mitch Report this Post to the Staff

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 09/21/2017 4:46 pm I don't know if the die state matters with this - It is an RPM (Repunched Mint Mark) now it should have an RPM number you can look up. Try searching Wexlers Coins and Varieties for RPM's Edited by Mark1959 09/21/2017 4:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/21/2017 4:55 pm It is 1954D-1MM-001. It is a North and South RPM, but the south doesn't show on this one. It is probably a MDS die. http://www.coppercoins.com/Lincoln/...ie_state=mds Lower loop show on earlier die states. Report this Post to the Staff

truman1404 Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 09/21/2017 5:22 pm Thanks guys, The north south thing they are referring to is the small line under the actual mint mark, right? Report this Post to the Staff
Bump111 Pillar of the Community United States 3325 Posts	Posted 09/21/2017 8:26 pm I think N/S means that there are actually two earlier MMs, one above and one below the predominant mark. You can see the north mark on your coin, but the south Mark may be worn away at the die state represented on your cent. You might see signs of it within the "D". The experts can correct me if needed.

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 09/21/2017 10:07 pm Yes RPM 001, I see these listed as D/D/D - There are quite a few listed on ebay from $15 to $50. I'm thinking the ones for 50 aren't really selling that fast Report this Post to the Staff
