Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/20/2022 6:42 pm Guessing there's a die chip on the tail of the S that may be misleading. Report this Post to the Staff
Bigwho808 Valued Member United States 192 Posts	Posted 03/20/2022 6:56 pm Yeah, that's what I thought too. But that straight line in the center is messing with my head. I will probably send them one in. It.may be a new discovery. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34408 Posts	Posted 03/20/2022 8:11 pm @big, you should definitely research this more, but your coin has at least a passing resemblance to 1971-s-rpm-011.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95805 Posts	Posted 03/20/2022 9:19 pm It is interesting, I think a chip at the bottom of the 'S' Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 12:33 pm The lower loop is showing a damaged mintmark punch on that area. http://www.varietyvista.com/02b%20L...%201971S.htm Note all the listed ones have the same thing, but that is not part of the RPMs. Report this Post to the Staff
Bigwho808 Valued Member United States 192 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 8:37 pm Thanks for all the input guys - I now see that scratch. This is one of those odd duck coins. I think I may send this one to coin grade company just to confirm. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34408 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 8:41 pm Ok yes if you take this step, then please give us an update on this thread when you get it back. It's always nice to have that viewpoint here. Thx!

Bigwho808 Valued Member United States 192 Posts	Posted 03/21/2022 8:44 pm @spence will do! I will post and see what they say. I think it's a die scratch right underneath a Die Cud of some sort. But I'll post an update when I get it back. Report this Post to the Staff
