Cherrypicked this one and it arrived today. Nice to not have any damage around the date as shows the RPM very nicely. 1910 S/S Lincoln Wheat cent - RPM-001, FS-501

Looks like an outside edge hit altered the rim line a bit. But always a nice RPM find.  One I bought years ago. Yours was struck before mine. Note the strength of the RPM? Note how the RPM has a fresher strength on that area? Also there is a die chip forming on the top of the '9' on my example. Showing that mine was struck later. Even the die scratches are gone on my example that were on the die when your coin was struck. Having the two images shows how the dies age and how your can tell which is fresher and which one is later in die state.

Thanks for all the kind comments! This one can be tough to see in ebay photos and always happy when a pick comes in right.

Super great that it still shows so well despite the circulation.

Super fun!
This coin was in one of the "Fun Rolls" I sold about a year ago. It appears the buyer of the roll wasn't too keen on varieties. That's a very scarce variety a variety collector should never miss.
I'm super stoked that it ended up in the hands of such an eagle-eyed, educated and astute variety collector! You're always a class act!
Seeing this coin come full circle and appear here is really a fun part of our hobby.
Congrats on the find Mr. C!
E. J. Scott
