luvmyCAM Pillar of the Community United States 1479 Posts	Posted 03/22/2019 1:59 pm Need help with this one,it being rpm 501 really intriges.The motto might be key to what happened here and that's all I know. Notice the fining along right rim of obverse. There appears to be 3 dropped letters of TRUST along rim S.E.of the 5 on date (can't bring it out in pics). Reverse is showing major grease striking. Diagnoses appreciated, thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/22/2019 2:12 pm It does appear to be RPM-001, FS-101 but with the damage probably no premium for this one. On to save until you get a better example. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74717 Posts	Posted 03/22/2019 2:14 pm It's too bad about the damage though. It's an RPM, but the value is completely destroyed by the damage. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
luvmyCAM Pillar of the Community United States 1479 Posts	Posted 03/22/2019 2:53 pm Thanks guys. How could the motto appear so low ,the thin fining on rim remain convex not flattened, and damage to date run concave underneath the 5 if it were a vise/parking lot coin? I agree it is damage but isn't these types of damage also minting damage?. Here is a similar example of a classic visejob. The 2 coins seem very different. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/22/2019 3:02 pm Probably a stage 'E'. Between die wear and circulation, it gets weaker with die aging. Edited by coop 03/22/2019 3:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
luvmyCAM Pillar of the Community United States 1479 Posts	Posted 03/22/2019 3:25 pm I actually found this coin rolling searching put it in a flip and forgot it. This am was re-organizing my "incredible rookiefinds pile" found first 3 months as roll searcher and noticed the rpm. Hmmmm wonder how many I missed my first 200,000 Lincoln's? Finding a find in your finds is comical. Report this Post to the Staff
