So I search all day

So today I searched all day looking for RPM's, DD's, and OMM's in Lincoln cents, with nothing to report.
So Im lying in bed thinking about it, then I realize I have a Blue folder of Late lincolns I picked up for 5 bucks, So I get out of bed grab my List of RPM's to look for and start searching while Im lying in bed. and this is what I found!
1959 D/D/D RPM 1. Its even listed in CONECA's top 100 RPM!
this is my first RPM find of any sort, and I am frickin excited!

And, why are you in bed in the middle of the day?

 

this is supposed to be a coin forum Frank

 

Niiiiiice!

 

Great find. I think RPM searching is one of the most rewarding aspects of this hobby.

 

WTG Snaz.. Sometimes a wandering mind is a good thing..

 

I now agree. I wouldnt have before.

LOL, not here, It was 3 in the morning when I posted that

Yah, sure is. Im so pumped, I couldnt seem to get my camera to focus nicely last night, so Ill try again after work.
thanks all!
any opinions on price? I was thinking like.. 5 bucks? 6 bucks

 

Cool find. No clue about a price.

 

I found a 1953 Lincoln with a doubled Liberty. I found it with a naked eye, it was so apparent. I sent it to NGC and they sent it back 1953 Lincoln AU 53. No mention of the doubling. I'm so disgusted with them, I'd like to send them a box of dog you know what. I'd like to see if it comes back "2004 Golden Lab, Purina".

Correct. I think one of the least expensive right now is ANACS. If you tell them which RPM you think it is they will designate it on the label for only an extra $5.00

 

Right. Five or six dollars is all you can expect provided you secure a willing buyer. [Unless it's MS64 or nicer] But even if it's MS62 I expect the buyer to beat the price down to about five bucks.

 

sweet find!!!!!!!!

 

Dang, now I've got look through some more coins so I can find one.

 

Warning....Newbie question

what does RPM and OMM mean ? I assume DD means Double Dye

 

RPM is repunched mint mark, and OMM means Over mint mark Like.. D over S or vise versa. DD means Double Die

 

Very nice find snaz!!!

OK I just had to look through my 1959D cents [all 12 of them] but no dice. Did find a 1953D RPM but the coin was cleaned somewhere in it's life. That 59 D/D/D is spectacular.
RPMs are hot. With the Lincoln cent turning 100 years old I'm sure they are going to be bought and sold like hot cakes. I am going to be careful what I get rid of!

 

Snaz
THAT'S THE WAY TO GO!!! Super nice triple!!!
Congrats and a big pat on the back!

Hey Victor don't be so hard on yourself...lots of coins get cleaned before we find them.
After all it is still a 1953 RPM, and may be one of many more to come.
