I'm not sure of that vertical bar running north from the mintmark. How bout some pictures. Sorry I had to go put the animals away and pushed the wrong button.

Quote: This one looks to have both serifs split. May see a "split" on the top serif on a very good day but damage on the bottom - I would say NOT an rpm. Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 03/02/2024 9:34 pm There's only one that it can be. 1MM=001, WRPM-002. The other one is to the southeast. I'm not seeing the gouge on the bottom of the N in united. I think the gouge would be strong enough to survive circulation. Report this Post to the Staff
RobO411 Pillar of the Community United States 2404 Posts	Posted 03/02/2024 10:51 pm @Cujohn. There's no gouge bottom of the N of UNITED. @Marve65. Couple horses. I realize it's messed up around the mint mark. Sorry it's difficult to catch both serifs in the same shot. Here's a better look at the lower serif. What do you think caused that to the west of D? What did that vertical bar at the top of upper serif? . Thanks again for your patience and help. Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5772 Posts	Posted 03/04/2024 07:42 am I see what appears to be a split on the upper serif but it's questionable on the lower one. To your last question, I see this recessed area around the MM on your coin and think Die Deterioration because of the state of the die that struck your coin. There seems to be a die crack coming of the tail of the 9 (4th image) and wandering towards the MM, which tells me this coin was struck by a VLDS coin (Very Late Die State). The 1952D Wheat cent series has a similar crack with deterioration causing the "Flying D" variety. As far as the recessed areas around the MM's on many early years, I believe it is a remnant of adding the MM by hand and not polishing the die afterwards to remove any displaced metal. The metal has to go somewhere, and it will be higher than the surrounding field. This raised metal on the die causes a slight recess on the coin. The more the dies are used, the more the Die Deterioration will distort these raised areas around the MM on the die. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Edited by Petespockets55 03/04/2024 07:44 am Report this Post to the Staff
