1956 d rpm

This coin forever changed the way I look at money, I wish I could capture the true beauty of this coin. Found it in a box coin roll hunting. Can anyone put a value to it and is it worth grading? Thanks for looking!!

What RPM is it? I can't find a match on variety vista. Closest I can find would be 001 but it doesn't quite match to my eyes.

 

The coin looks lustrous, I am just not seeing an RPM,
do you have a reference?

 

it looks like the 001 to me.

 

here' another

 

Got it that time

 

I posted better pictures

 

Try to match a image to one of these .

That doesn't match:

So what' that mean? I thought it was a p at first glance

 

Probably some die deterioration doubling, I am not seeing it either.

 

Means it isn't 001. Has to match exactly. Not just "close". Nice looking 56-D but I don't think it's an RPM.

 

ok and this mint mark is not repunched 5x?

 

Where are you seeing 5x?

 

So they repunched the mint mark 5 times?
What about the rest of the coin?
Isn't the mint mark on the die (and not done separately to the coin), which would have to punch the coin 5 times total ?

 

You have a lot to learn about the minting process.
No, your coin was not re punched 5X.

 

as an intro ... read this ==> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coining_(mint)

at the very least read the sections "Modern die production" and "Use" more than once.

 

think the OP mean they (image ) was taken at 5x .
5 times what, I don't know ..

 

Definitely said "repunched',

 

maybe the OP will clarify ?
