mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2957 Posts	Posted 04/25/2022 6:22 pm The doubling on the IN appears to be Strike Doubling or post mint damage, and I don't see anything that looks like a rpm to me, most likely damage again to the mintmark. Check out varietyvista.com for things rpm; they did a good job on that website. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34426 Posts	Posted 04/25/2022 6:49 pm This looks like damage to me and I agree varietyvista is a good site to look for RPM. They don't list any for the 1976-D cents though: http://www.varietyvista.com/02b%20L...Listings.htm "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/26/2022 1:32 pm Incuse areas on the devices are most often coin contact from another coin. If it were a RPM, the size of the mintmark would be enlarged, not reduced like Machine Doubling does. It removes the contour from the affected area. Just a damaged coin when this happens.
