Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 08/01/2025 4:51 pm The doubling on the mintmark looks legit to me, making this a RPM (as opposed to a doubled die). One of our experts should be able to figure out which specific one you have here. Added: maybe 002? I'm not sure though.

The RPMs are all laid out in a grid for easy reference. Just put it side by side with your coin and compare. http://www.varietyvista.com/02a%20L...%201955D.htm Report this Post to the Staff
