*** Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. Titles are Important! ***Meow was penny roll searching today and found an RPM, and another possible RPM. What do you all think?   Meow is not so sure about the 1972s, as it has a bits of dirt in the fine details.

The first one is 1MM-001 on coppercoins.com Very nice find and congratulations! http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=mds The second one isn't an RPM. It's Post Strike Damage (it happened after it left the U.S. Mint). The second one took a hit, causing the metal to get pushed over and flattened.

I agree with E&V, first one is a RPM, second one is just damage.
That 1968-D/D RPM-001 is a really nice find! Good job!

Amazing catch Cat. Really a fast start. I thought I would be driven insane by your first person (or cat) verbiage. But now I miss it  Don't grow up because of people like I

Wow! Meows very first variety find! Sooooo exciting! And what value would a find like that add?
Meow was suspecting the S mint because of top part of the s being filled in, with the extra bump. Meow thought it was maybe another mintmark underneath. The damage on top of the top part of the s, Meow saw that. The fact that the other curve of the s is filled in with dirt, Meow thought that too might be hiding something too. But, it could of been all wishful thinking. Thanks all.
Not all people seem to like Cats. Allergies maybe? Litterbox issues? Canine loyalty?

The 1972 is just coin contact on the upper serif area. In the lower loops there are marks from a damaged mint mark punch. No RPM.

No - my mother was a crazy cat lady and had 15 of them litterbox beauties pissing all over her hardwood floors for 20 years. Turned the hard maple that had a beautiful finish but is now black from all the pee soaking into it after we ripped out the carpets. They moved to SC and now I have to tear all the cat pee black stinking wood out of the house and replace it with new before I can put it on the market!!

Quote: That sounds rough Mark! That must suck. Yeah, it is. Got back from there this morning and you have to instantly wash your clothes and take a hot shower as working with wood that is covered in cat pee is sticky to the touch and stinks so bad. I know there are good cat lovers out there that take care of their cats religiously. But My parents were too old to take GOOD care of them and they wouldn't get rid of them. That's what happens at times when you won't give up your pets because you Can't "live without them" but can't give them the care required. Then your house is turned into "THEIR" house instead of the people who actually own it!!

I know what the smell is like from cat pee. It's happened in my house before, but we found out the problem and cleaned it up right away. If you want to own pets, be prepared to take care of them. Otherwise, if you can't, get rid of them.

I thought cats were usually spotting mice, chipmunks, & various other small animals - never knew they would also hunt RPM's!
