I haven't spent much time looking for RPMs in the past, so I wanted to get some feedback on some potential examples I found to see if I'm on the right track. None of them are very dramatic if they are the real deal, unfortunately, but combing through my stash of wheat pennies for errors has at least been a good way to spend time while social distancing...

Hope everyone is staying safe out there!

Please just show one coin per thread. Very confusing otherwise.

Sorry, thought it would be less confusing to just post them all at once than to spam the forum with the same question five times. Edited it to just be the first one.

@sc, yes one coin per thread is the best. Thanks for fixing that. When I rotate, crop, enlarge, and enhance your pic, I do see a split serif on that letter D, but it might just be a circulation scratch. Have you looked at the varietyvista page for '57 D cents yet?

You are on the right track, that looks to have split serifs - upper and lower. Though fairly minor so may not be listed, try CopperCoins.

Thanks, Spence, I have a hard time telling if it's just damage or the actual thing. To me it looks like RPM-012 or RPM-013 on variety vista, but I'm having a really hard time telling which.

Your pic is at an angle so my lines might be off a bit. Look for RPMs that are in the same location in relation to the blue lines, 12 and 13 are not.
