I had never heard of RPM's until i found this site are they of any value and why haven't i seen them for sell on auction sites? Thanks Kent
Hi Kent, and welcome to the forum!! Go to ebay or major auction site and search "RPM cent" or Repunched mint mark. Jim
Okay. I misunderstood that you were trying to post a link to another site. If you are referring to this site, desertgem has you covered. By the way, there is a great list of acronyms in the FAQ section. Welcome.
Maybe you haven't been looking in the right places. RPMs are frequently sold on Heritage, Teletrade and eBay.
FIRST OF ALL WELCOME TO THIS FORUM. Now as for RPM's. Us numismatist try to keep such items secret from the mass population. This way we can hoard all the RPM's on Earth, then release that info and sell them for massive profits.:goofer: Now if you believe that I'll sell you a roll of unsearched coins next. :smile All just kidding. RPM's and some other types of oddities are just not really popular. Some are really difficult to detect anyway. Some are 2, 3 or more multiples and those usually sell for a little more. I go to a lot of coin shows and there are some dealers that specialize in error coins and RPM's are just not that popular so that is why you seldom hear about them. Note that in the rather popular Red Book by Whitman Publishing on pages 400 and up they explain all types of errors but no mention of RPM's. Similarly no mention of rotated reverses. Another error that is not popular. Not even sure if a RPM is really an error either. One person that really goes into RPM's is on the www.coppercoins.com web site. His books too rather explain them to some detail. Again, welcome.
