If they are contact marks there will be raised metal around them. Will check back to see what you find out:) Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/01/2021 2:35 pm Just a contact mark. If it were a actual RPM, it would have been listed long time ago. It would be impposible for it to be a mintmark. That area of the die is below the fields. Thus if it were a mintmark, it would fully raised on the bust. Similar example on a different year: Report this Post to the Staff
