Southern New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 10/19/2021 1:14 pm I think I have a 1961 d repunched mint mark and I could use some help in finding out if that's the case. This is my 1st question on the form and I'm pretty new to coin hunting. I have a lot of old coins to go over so I'll have a lot of questions for you. At 1st I thought it might be a double double double double double cause of the notch at the top of the 6... But like I said, I'm new to all of this. Appreciate your help in advance Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/20/2021 1:15 pm Are you looking at the belly button lint inside of the mintmark? If so, that is not a RPM. A toothpick would probably remove it? The largest RPM punching would be thin looking: http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=lds http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=mds http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/...ie_state=lds Why will they be that thin? Because the punch has to be hit several times to set the mintmark into a hardened die. Edited by coop 10/20/2021 1:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff
