I agree. Sorry David, this looks like a regular coin.
This one is the real doubled die. You can tell by looking at the lower curve of the 3. If the inside curve on the bottom is flat (like yours) it...
I recently purchased a 5000 count wheat cent bag. I am about 3/4 of the way through it now and I found 3 of these. It is a 1955D DDO # 1 (doubled...
It is RPM 15. There is a great link on varietyvista.com to a free ebook on Jefferson Nickel RPMs. Great resource for attributing Jefferson RPMs.
This is a cool 1945D War Nickel RPM I found this weekend. I like finding RPMs on War Nickels because the mintmarks are so large that even the...
Super cool find!!!

Got it. Thank you both. I will weigh it and let you know what the results are.
I am assuming that this is an example of a dryer coin, am I correct? It has a strange texture all over the obverse and reverse. If it was just...
I agree. MD (Machine Doubling). Not to be picky, but RPDs (or Re-Punched Dates) are not possible after 1909 because of changes in processes at...
Thanks Frank!
I cherrypicked this guy today. It is a beauty! It is a 1947S OMM #1. It is an S over D mintmark variety. The die was punched with a D mintmark...
Beautiful pick up! I can't wait to hear the grade!
