Markers seem to match. An image with all the digits and the mint mark would help for an overlay. But the markers seem to match on the east of the mint mark, the line below the last 1 in the date and the B in LIBERTY. The only concern is the shape of the mint mark RPM seems straighter than the images, but that is my only question. Location seem very close. But an image with the digits helps as it allows the date to be made horizontal to match the one on coppercoins. Then overlay-ed. With the image not exactly horizontal things look different.

Here are direct pics, plus some more die-markers.
Pretty sure this is the right RPM. (1961D-1MM-012).

Chuckster: The location is a dead on match and markers as well. What concerned me was the RPM like in the center. On your coin the line looked straight. On the one on the site and other references it appears rounded. So why that looks that way is not a problem. It is that die. Nice find. It matches the markers on my coin to the tee. Thanks for posting images that showed the tops. I rotate the outside digits to get the exactly the same. Cut the exact points on the two images (Vertical points only necessary)and size them exactly the same width and overlay them. So you can see why the tops of the date are necessary. It helps to know when it is level. Thanks again.
