What was the final conclusion?
I can do it, if there is a good clear picture of the coin (or if I shoot the coin).
MD on proof or satin issues can be deceiving. The flattened areas, what appear doubled, sometimes retains part of the cameo or satin surface...
Probably not - looks like machine doubling
I don't know what this is. Probably plating bubbles. For me to believe that anything posted was a dropped letter or number I would need to see:...
A better picture and maybe a reference to a known RPM (could be any series or year) that has a similar characteristic to what you feel you are...
Could be anything anyone noted but probably a few plating bubbles. Poke one with a toothpick while viewing it under magnification and see if it...
That's DDD alright. Common on early to mid fifties Lincoln cents, but can be found on any year...and yes called it is referred to as a poorman's...

Nice looking '83D! ...It was be easier if I knew the specifics of why you feel this is a RPM (e.g, split serifs, a separation line, etc.). Going...
If that were your criteria, an accepted variety, then the '58P DDO-001, the '69S DDO-001, the '70S DDO-001, the '82P SD DDR-001 should probably...
There are multiple tricks one can employ. While I am certain there is a good, if not several, camera threads at CT, there is one I have contribute...
I believe this list was meant to contain realistically obtainable varieties which preclude the inclusion of ones that, at least for now, are far...
From CONECA: "Note: Since these articles were published it has been confirmed that the Kie Brown specimen has been graded by PCGS as MS-62 Red; I...
If anyone is interested, I'll put something togther...
I would think a long linear plating bubble or a die gouge; but there could be other reasons. There would have to be pics to know for sure...

Separate names with a comma.
