CentSation Pillar of the Community United States 713 Posts	Posted 12/07/2020 11:48 pm Trying to determine if this is RPM-003 or if this is some type of push doubling [or other] on the MM. Using an online overlay site shows that this lines up fairly well with RPM-003 but, mine does have a good bit of circulation wear and the pics for the plate coins are not the greatest. No real die markers except the reverse die crack which I do not see on mine. Not able to determine the die stage, either. My pics aren't great as I just have a USB scope and I rushed them a little. The darker MM pic is with a flashlight across the surface just to try and show a possible secondary MM a little better. http://www.varietyvista.com/02a%20L...8SRPM003.htm Any assistance is appreciated.

CentSation Pillar of the Community United States 713 Posts	Posted 12/08/2020 8:12 pm Thank you for the affirmation -- now I can clean it up a bit. Yes, I like the quills, not sure how some use a rose thorn that doesn't even seem possible. Edited by CentSation 12/08/2020 8:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff
