sosicoin Valued Member United States 393 Posts	Posted 07/24/2018 03:07 am Hi, everyone. I need help in determining if there is RPM. Too, I have difficulty determining which tip has the ball. Thus, I don't know if the MM is inverted. Is there a clue/s to determine which tip is a ball? Thanks. Pardon my photography set-up. I have not completed my set-up yet per suggestions of our expert photographer. Hi, Coop. I am turning the coins at 45 degrees angle to catch the change of colors on the MM. Just picking something from Coop's written instructions, pictures and videos. Learning little bit at a time. Edited by sosicoin 07/24/2018 03:20 am Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 07/24/2018 12:51 pm No inverted Mintmarks in Memmorial series, is there? Punches, especially the S got damaged easily, chipped on inside loops. I do see a split lower serif, a slight RPM, a an unlisted one apparently, not on CC or VV? Edited by Crazyb0 07/24/2018 12:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75042 Posts	Posted 07/24/2018 12:53 pm The only inverted mint mark that ever existed was on the 1946 S Lincoln Wheat cent (and it's the only known example with a inverted mint mark throughout the whole series).

sosicoin Valued Member United States 393 Posts	Posted 07/24/2018 6:23 pm Hi, Crazyb0, E&V. Thanks. I am just having a hard time distinguishing which tip has the ball. To me, it looks like both tips has ball. This particular MM is like learning how to distinguish a "1982" small & large date. or I am just making it too hard when shouldn't..
