Jefferson RPM'S

The Coneca site site isn't working well the last few days and I'm anxious about sending in some RPM's for attribution. Taking some vacation time just to spend on the coins and relax. Thought I'd share a few images of RPM's that don't appear in the book? Any observations are welcome.

The images are taken with a QX5. Hopefully they post!

The first is a 1953-S, 1954-D, and 2-1959-D's

Question Ahhhh- The QX5

I was just asking about the QX5 and this provides a good visual. How do you like using it compared to a digital camera?

Never bothered to get a digital camera. Just got this because I wanted to get a good look at smaller details. The field of view at 10x is only the size of a dime and the mags are fixed at 10, 60, and 200x. It easier on the eyes than a loop.

Your RPM's

Hey,
Nice RPM's. You can find all of them on this web site. Look for the "Top 100". The Reverse S is known about, but this is the first one that may have been seen. The other D's are also listed also. Hope this helps. I would just send in the reversed "S" though, and not waste any money on the "D's".
David

Oops!

Wrong link, yours was a 53, but probably the same die.

Thanks David.

I wasn't very clear about which images were which. The top right one D/D north is the 54-D. Looks like the 59-D RPM-001 doesn't it?
Here's another nice looking 53-S. Much more defined than the RPM-003's that I have also.
