grospoisson Pillar of the Community United States 984 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 10:08 am Here are three different coins with the same shape of a upper S above the mintmark? The mintmark is also an RPM that I can't find? More than likely the mark is from the die, I would assume? Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97685 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 1:11 pm If it a D over S it would be an OMM not an RPM. but not sure which it could be (if anything). Time for some research on this one... BRB. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Dearborn Moderator United States 97685 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 1:14 pm the only OMM VV has listed is '1952-D/S OMM-001' - but that one the 'S' is south of the 'D' not North. so not a match there http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20...2DOMM001.htm So on to looking at RPM's...

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74846 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 1:17 pm Looks like an RPM with a Die Chip forming on the top. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97685 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 1:19 pm maybe this one, but the filled D don't match up - unless the post broke off later on: 1952-D RPM-024 But the split serifs at the top and bottom seem to match http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20...2DRPM024.htm Collecting since 1972.

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8795 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 2:26 pm It's all die chips and breaks, on the north side of the mm, on top of the mm and starting at the southwest serif. Yours is an early stage of what is referred to as a "Flying D". Here is one CoinHI posted.

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 3:59 pm Hmm, interesting. Would be curious to hear what Tanman or Tropicalbats think. Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8795 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 4:08 pm I apologize, Dearborn, got out in the fast lane, there is an RPM there. Looks to be a later version of VV's RPM-009. I'll get some pics up shortly. I feel comfortable with what I said about the cracking and chipping areas though. It looks like the Stage A and Stage B in VV's listing is backwards though, at least to me. VV's RPM-009 http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20...2DRPM009.htm See what you think. The chipping areas look right but the location looks just slightly off though. If gros shot this pic at an angle, that may be the difference though. -makecents- Edited by -makecents- 07/05/2023 4:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 6:08 pm The 52s are loaded with damaged bottom serfs and die dents around the MM. I think it is 009 also. Report this Post to the Staff
rmpsrpms Pillar of the Community United States 4038 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 7:48 pm For sure they are similar, but it does not look like RPM-009 to me. Not sure what the "S" looking thing at the top is. Probably need to view it in hand under stereo microscope and do overlays to be sure. It is most likely a die gouge but the shape is interesting enough to warrant more investigation.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 8:08 pm I agree with rmpsrpms. Must be see in the hand. The RPM ? is possible but the like S upper and left side bottom of the MM go for OMM. A dual combination yes could be. Must be analyze in hand. Bill, you can choose who will analyze your coin.

I agree with all and with the call name "rmpsrpms", the OP should let you look it over. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
grospoisson Pillar of the Community United States 984 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 9:06 pm Any of you guys want to see in hand? I have 6 or so. Send me an address in my email and I will mail one to any of you. More than happy to do that. Bill Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97685 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 9:12 pm I still think it is a closer match to VV RPM-024: the split serifs match more closely to a slightly D/D rotated CW, as opposed to the RPM-009 with a D/D South Collecting since 1972.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/05/2023 9:14 pm No Bill: you better go with Tanner (Wex site new owner) as is Tanman here, rmpsrpms or TB (TropicalBats). Then if with the result Mike could write an article it is a new thing. Edited by silviosi 07/05/2023 9:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff
