<p>[QUOTE="Kevin Dore, post: 3163323, member: 96515"]First may I thank everyone for all of your well educated and informative answers to my posts in the past. I am very new to looking for variety and error coins, and I'm totally hooked. I do try to do my research as best I can before posting questions here, and thanks to answers to my somewhat dumb questions of the past I have learned of resources that are out there and how to use them. However I find myself to still be struggling. It has been frustrating at times thinking I found something worthy of asking about only to find out it was PMD that fooled me. But I am learning a lot! I've found about a dozen coins over the last couple days that I thought at first were worthy of investigating further, but was able to rule them out as mint errors by myself.</p><p><br /></p><p>With all that said, I found this 1952d LWC that I haven't been able to rule out of having a RPM. Nor can I seem to find enough evidence to prove that it is. So once again I pose a coin to the experts here to help me identify, or explain to me possibly why it cannot be ruled one way or the other.</p><p><br /></p><p>Looking at <a href="http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%201/RPMs%201952D.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%201/RPMs%201952D.htm" rel="nofollow">http://varietyvista.com/02a LC RPMs Vol 1/RPMs 1952D.htm</a></p><p>and considering the shape and position of the mint mark I think it may be <b><a href="http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%201/1952DRPM021.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%201/1952DRPM021.htm" rel="nofollow">1952-D RPM-021</a> or <b><a href="http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%201/1952DRPM023.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%201/1952DRPM023.htm" rel="nofollow">1952-D RPM-023</a>. </b></b></p><p><br /></p><p>However I can't seem to spot any of the die markers on the coin.
