tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 07/27/2019 8:59 pm Found a couple of these in that last roll. Pretty similar to RPM-015 (see my previous post) in separation but 005 is a lot more crisp in how it shows. Easy one to spot. Nice coin but has a couple spots. If you want to own it, be the first to PM me with the subject line "bugs R bat food" and I'll mail this exact coin to you free. Will post here once coin has been given away. 1953-S/S Lincoln Wheat cent RPM-005 Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5780 Posts	Posted 07/28/2019 09:43 am Very nice coin but I really like that "code" needed to receive it. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/28/2019 2:20 pm Does your coin have the die scratch south of the 'R' on LIBERTY? http://www.varietyvista.com/02a%20L...3SRPM005.htm If not, it might be an earlier die state than Variety Vista has? Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 07/28/2019 8:51 pm Yes, every example I found has the die scratch below the R. It's a pretty obvious RPM but I used that marker to verify them all and it's there. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/28/2019 11:43 pm On the coppercoins example there are die gouges on the rim above GOD on the motto. http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=mds Yours probably doesn't have that as their die state is actually a LDS instead of a MDS. So the gouges may have happened later. Edited by coop 07/28/2019 11:44 pm Report this Post to the Staff
tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 07/29/2019 09:26 am The obverse die markers are there, just much more pronounced. A number of additional die scratches are visible around LIBERTY as well which are worn away on the CC coin. None of the reverse die marker are there. Report this Post to the Staff
