Grelko Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 08/22/2020 05:26 am I tried matching it up, but I don't see the double mintmark. Edit - split serif on the mintmark. Too bad the 6 took damage. Edited by Grelko 08/22/2020 05:33 am Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5774 Posts	Posted 08/22/2020 06:07 am It does look to be an RPM with fairly strong notching on the serifs, but I don't have an extra couple of hours this morning to sort through the sites for a variety number (since it's a 1960D). Others that come along may be more familiar with this year to pinpoint an ID. I've seen some also that I thought were LD/SD because of perceived separation on the date. If I remember correctly it was actually a small raised ridge following part of the contour of the numbers and determined to be Die Deterioration or a "metal flow" issue. 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
Grelko Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 08/22/2020 06:10 am At first I thought it might have been (1960D-1DO-003) over at coppercoins, but there's nothing on the memorial that I saw. I've been looking around for a good while and can't come up with a match. Report this Post to the Staff
smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2334 Posts	Posted 08/22/2020 06:14 am Looks like a D/D...not sure about the small/lg date...looks like the tail of the 9 got flattened out too...? But I can see some of what you see in the 1 and the top of the 9 with its thickening and spread...even the 0 to a lesser extent based on the photos... Very nice coin...can't wait for others to reply. smat Report this Post to the Staff
Grelko Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 08/22/2020 09:22 am Well that was a total pain haha. I popped the lense off my actual microscope, stacked up a couple cents on each side of the coin, balanced the lense between the two stacks, and somehow got a half decent picture of the split serifs on the mintmark using an Ipad Sorry about the blur and glare, but the magnification is MUCH better than using the Ipad and a jewelers loupe.

SilverCents Pillar of the Community United States 3281 Posts	Posted 08/22/2020 10:05 am There are over 200 RPMs for this year. It could be one of them, it could be an unlisted one. Who knows. Edited by SilverCents 08/22/2020 10:06 am Report this Post to the Staff
Grelko Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 08/22/2020 10:29 am I was just going through them at the coppercoins site. there's at least 40-50 that look similar. Report this Post to the Staff
