Hi all, I need your help with this one. Found this 1959-D Lincoln that looks like a repunched mint mark, but I am having a hard time attributing it. Can anyone else ID it? Could it possibly be a new discovery? Or is it even an RPM at all?

Any help at all is greatly appreciated. I have a bunch of coins in the same box as this one, thought I'd post them up here one by one to try to get some help IDing them. Solve this one and I'll move on to the next!!

Thanks Coppercoins, that was what I thought it may be, but on my coin, I can't see the doubling to the west and the inside of the mint mark has something that I don't see in RPM #1. However it does seem to show some of the other die markers such as the severely cracked 12th pillar on the reverse. Do you suppose it is a later die state?

That's probably an earlier die state example since this is one of the varieties that actually shows better in the later die states. Reason being is that they filled the recesses that didn't belong there, and it chipped out with die use.

Thanks again, I wasn't aware that the mint filled in dies. I just assumed that they worked them down before repunching them.
