Got this for $6.50 shipped. A good addition to the collection seeing as I don't have many 1950s varieties. What do you think?   |

The price is good. But are those scratches on the obverse? (2 of them?)

Super clear RPM, but that scratch coming out of Abe's eye bugs me. It reminds me of the time I wasn't careful enough while removing a coin from a 2x2 and I dragged it across the end of a staple.  "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Thanks guys possibly staple scratches but going into the crh/lower grade collection so it will fill the slot just fine.

Always nice to add a "naked eye" RPM....

Nice one! Easily visible and a great price at that.

Nice RPM. I for one would like members to use the RPM and not D/D designations for a RPM. John1  |

Thanks for the comments guys. And john1 are you saying that so the post isn't confusing to newbies? I could see that. I'll start labeling them as they are on PCGS CoinFacts.

D/D is confusing to me, does it mean doubled die, if so obverse or reverse? That's why a doubled die reverse is DDR or a doubled die obverse is DDO. A re-punched mint mark makes more sense as a RPM than D/D or if it had three mint marks then you would have to write D/D/D. John1 |
