I found this 1974-s over the weekend and wanted to get some opinions on it. It exhibits a strong split upper serf and a possible separation line on the lower inner curve of the mint mark. When checking coppercoins, I see NO varieties listed for the 1974-s.
I think this is a good RPM, and possibly the first one for this date (highly unlikely - I know). Your thoughts? Thanks in advance!
Well, I knew that it would be pretty minor, but at least its an RPM! I'll start keeping an eye out for an example of yours as well, Coop! As always, I really appreciate the help!
It's a genuine repunched mintmark and it doesn't surprise me that we are behind in getting these listed. One of the things I never thought I would run into is having more to list than I could ever imagine getting done.
I too am amazed at the huge number of varieties just in the Lincoln Cent series. That is a great thing, but also a totally daunting task to try to quantify them all - especially considering all of the varying die states. This makes what you have come up with on coppercoins even more amazing. A huge effort that is to be commended:). I have said it before, but it really has increased my enjoyment of this great hobby many fold since I discovered it. Thanks again!
