I'm getting excited about this one, I will have in in hand tomorrow. Doesn't look cleaned lol. The pics aren't great but it looks near gem to me from the sellers pics. I'll post better pics tomorrow afternoon when I get it. You can't see the rpm in the pics I'm just going off of the markers. What do you guys think?

I'm definitely looking forward to a close-up pic of the mintmark!

I highly doubt I'm going to find another one of these in this condition so I will tell you the secret of finding this variety. There's a huge die chip and die crack on the reverse. The crack runs through the U and just to the right of center roof.

Is that big enough to be considered a break?

I'll be looking forward to the pictures of it being in hand. You seem to be an excellent cherrypicker!

Thanks E&V I got this from a guy on ebay who is dumping someone's collection. Definitely not his or they would be labeled better. They are all bu and some are gems. I bought several and missed out on a couple. If anyone wants the sellers name let me know.

Wow Will! That's interesting. Out of curiosity, what's the seller's name?

Looks like it could be a real RPM as well:

Note the markers on this die on the site.

I got it looks great to me! A few small hits on the obverse and a couple on the reverse. Overall very clean. I didn't post a closeup of the mm you can see it when you zoom in.

Hesgut is the seller. There's a couple left on there I want but I've been buying too many. Lol
