Can't believe This was in the last handful of cents from my bag I was searching. Actually this was the 4rth from the last of the wheat cents I had. It was full of black gunk that acetone and a toothpick took away - now I have to put it into a Verdi-Care soak but had to take pics first. Anybody got an RPM # for this!    Edited by Mark1959

Great find Mark! Pretty awesome you found this at the end. I give you credit as these RPM's are not easy to find. It looks like 1956D-1MM-001 on coppercoins.com. Here's the link to coppercoins. http://www.coppercoins.com/advsearch.php  Errers and Varietys.

So here's the Pic of the coin, I know some people want Obverse and reverse but with RPM's ya can't see anything, but the acetone did get rid of the black crud   |

Wow, it looks very nice after it took a bath in Acetone. Mint luster is still present, so it hasn't been circulation that long. High grade coin. Errers and Varietys.

Wow, Mark! It has definitely helped and made a huge difference. It looks a lot better now. Maybe I should get Verdi-Care and use it on my 1984 Doubled Ear DDO cent. Errers and Varietys.
