That is a good thing as they locations of the mintmarks could be used for ID-ing the doubled dies and RPMs easier. So after 1990, there are no more RPMs. If the mintmark is doubled after that year, then it is part of a doubled die. IE 1995-D DDO-003: Note the lower serif on the mintmark. It is part of the DDO. (Not a RPM after 1990) Report this Post to the Staff
