Hi guys, just wanted to see what you all think. Rpm-001 Stage B. Also, I noticed it weighed 11.27G. Seems low.

It is only .23 grams light - within specs. and I think your RPM could be the 1968-D RPM-001 But the VV images are very dark to be certain.

But next time do not post up a screen shot of your scope from your cell phone - they are too pixelated. (and we are not allowed to post them anyway.)

It's kinda light. Also, I think the mint mark is showing Machine Doubling, but I could be wrong.

rbaker20,
What attribution number do you think it might be? I think it is MD.
What is the normal weight meant to be? What is the mint tolerance?

I don't think you half dollar mintmark matches the 68D RPM-001. It looks like MDD. Attached is a photo of the RPM-001 in my collection, note it matches the one in VV, but not your photo.

MD. Can't see line in the middle of the MM on yours and the spur going to the northeast.

Current image seems to not match RPM, but still 40% silver clad. Thanks, Doug.
