CentR Valued Member United States 139 Posts	Posted 02/04/2025 10:50 pm This very pretty large date 1960 D/D RPM-002 arrived today. I think its very early die state because the column die cracks are not as progressed as the Stage A reference coin on Variety Vista, and there's less polishing marks and more detail vs. VV Stage A and Coppercoins.com EDS reference coins. Sorry about all the images. Edited by CentR 02/04/2025 11:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

CentR Valued Member United States 139 Posts	Posted 02/04/2025 11:56 pm Good catch! Thanks. Interesting, the VV stages don't correspond to the progression of the column die breaks. Stage A starts off with moderate dies breaks, they progress in Stage B, this transitions to no column due breaks in Stages C-F, then they start again weakly in G, and slightly stronger in H. How would that work? When the reverse die was getting worn but still useable, a new obverse die with RPM-002 was switched in. Then the reverse die was switched out and more coins were minted?

The obverse die could not be changed or it would not be RPM-002 anymore. If you scroll down to the bottom of the VV link you will see the "Die Stages and Markers Chart". It will show you that at Stage C the reverse die was changed out. http://varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20...0DRPM002.htm -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
