SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 07/26/2020 4:47 pm Been a while since my last post (busy summer), but finally had the chance to do a little variety hunting. I found what I suspect is a 1938-D RPM-002, but this coin does not have as its reverse DDR-001 as is listed on variety vista. Coppercoins seems to indicate that the reverse die was changed and that only some of the coins struck bear DDR-001. What do people think? Report this Post to the Staff

That would be what to check for. http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=eds LDS listing: http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=lds There is a quote on the LDS example you might look at on the link above: Quote: A close but very strong southwest punching shows along the outside edge of the west and south portions of the primary mintmark. In mid to late die state the reverse of this die was changed and is listed as 1938D-1DR-003. (underline added by coop) Report this Post to the Staff
