DOCC Pillar of the Community United States 1502 Posts	Posted 11/17/2023 9:47 pm MM has slight spread in SW corner and fattens up from NE down to SE. Does not match any VV listings - MM positioning does not match any VV listings either. Would appreciate opinions, can take some more photos if needed. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34410 Posts	Posted 11/17/2023 10:10 pm Yes that mm is a bit fatter on the bottom left corner. I'm not seeing even a whiff of a split serif though. My vote is that it isn't a RPM.

Dearborn Moderator United States 96214 Posts	Posted 11/18/2023 08:24 am I wonder if hte Mint worker had the MM punch on a slight andle when he hit it and caused the lower right side to go deeper into the die, thus making it thicker than the exact opposite side (top-left).

DOCC Pillar of the Community United States 1502 Posts	Posted 11/18/2023 08:37 am Tough call as the only published 'known' MM style for 88 does not come close to this coin. Wex & CC have nothing to match. Known MM for 88 & Edited by DOCC 11/18/2023 08:41 am Report this Post to the Staff
