coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/23/2021 11:06 am Looks like damage to the coin on the rim and the devices sizes are telling me the die was over polishing making the devices smaller in size. I see not extra 'D' from the images provided. On a RPM you will see evidence to two or more punches on the mintmark: Note the two punches on the die? Note also that devices are enlarged in size? In order for this to be a RPM, it need to show separate punches on the mintmark area. Machine Doubling and coin damage does not make it a RPM. Even enlarging without showing multiple punches doesn't make it a RPM: The punches on this die don't show multiple punches, thus the enlarging does not make it a RPM. Report this Post to the Staff
