@doug, it is hard for me to tell from these pics as your closeups are a bit soft on the focus. Here is a link to the 39 known RPMs for this date/mint to get you started:

@doug, this thread on taking good pics with a phone and other commonly found household items may be of some interest (no selfie stick required!):

Look into getting a clip-on magnifier, that might help.

Ok, I have a clip on magnifying loupe coming today, my friend took these, she did some tweaks to them, figured try these too, but I will take more when I get the clip on loupe later. Appreciate all the help and patience,
