mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3546 Posts	Posted 08/26/2024 12:45 pm Since CoinFacts only lists an FS-501 RPM, would they still slab/attribute it listing an 005 for the variety #? Or would I be wasting my money getting it attributed with them and have a better chance with NGC doing the attribution? This coin has a shot at a 63 and do you think the retail price showing on CoinFacts would be comparable for this particular variety although it's a different RPM? Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4398 Posts	Posted 08/26/2024 2:10 pm RPM-005 is FS-501: http://www.varietyvista.com/06%20Me...2DRPM005.htm You shouldn't have a problem getting PCGS or NGC to label this one correctly.

macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 08/26/2024 4:03 pm Looks correct for RPM designation. Not seeing DDO. Grade wise I would call this one AU surface, picture out of focus. Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8744 Posts	Posted 08/27/2024 08:39 am Nice find on the RPM! I think what you have on the profile is "channeling", common during this timeline. LINK https://www.error-ref.com/retouchin...gn-elements/ -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6495 Posts	Posted 08/27/2024 10:20 am I didn't know there was a formal term for that phenomenon, but I can confirm that I have seen that thin edge on many Mercury dimes in the WWII era. Sometimes it is also visible on WWII vintage nickels, both cupronickel and War Nickel composition. Report this Post to the Staff
