Wait are you sure it is a trumpet tail? Doesn’t look like it to me

 

You can't expect him to search through 75 RPM's for you, it would ruin the fun!


Thanks,

Noo that’s not what I’m asking. I’m asking if it is an rpm,IMM, or both. Because I feel like he keeps contradicting himself. He first told me he thought it was the imm and now he is looking at all the RPMs and I didn’t even think this was an rpm lol

 

Here's what I said .

 

Here's the 2 mint-mark styles for 1946 .

Easy to see yours is MMS-006 .
Now look how wide your coin is .
Again, it's a RPM ..

 

Here your mint-mark and easy to see it's a RPM .

 

Cool thank you! I thought it was like that due to wear

 

Wow, that's pretty hard to see.

Rick, I think the 1 is upside-down. Do you know if Wexler knows about these upside-down 1s, or are they new discoveries?

 

Have you done your comparisons yet? You have the coin,
Just askin?

 

Of what the rpms?

 

Yes, which RPM is it?

 

Hey life to short to worry about one common coin so much. It’s an error, a minor error. Find more and you’ll have more examples to match up. I find it easy to get hung up on one coin and get “ lost” in the microscope for hours. So I just don’t use it much. If I can’t see it with a loupe I don’t want it!
The hours spent hand wringing about this coin could better be spent roll hunting. A bet you’d have found a error or two in the time.

 

I have to check. I think it might be the one rick talked aboht

 

I checked doubleddie.com but I don’t see the die gouge on the P from Pluribus

 

A coin with even a bit of wear can be troublesome to identify.
First eliminate the MM that aren't sans serif, then elimate those that have the incorrect MM positioning. Third find a characteristic on your MM to match it to. They can be difficult until you have done this many, many times.
Good luck!

 

Cool thank you!
