<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 799625, member: 15199&quot;]A Re Punched Mintmark occurs when the&nbsp; mm was punched once on the working die, and then as it was to be punched deeper, the die setter moved the punch, so instead of one single mm, it had 2 or even sometimes 3 visible. Then if the setter didn&#039;t notice ( or care) that the mistake was made, the die would be inserted into the press and many , many coins , all with the RPM would be made. Some have said that if it was noticed by a supervisor, the die could be withdrawn and corrected, so there are some common RPMs and some scarce RPMs, but they would be a variety. As to whether there was ever just 1 coin made with the RPM would it be an error rather than a variety, I don&#039;t know, as I am sure semantics would jump in there. I have never heard&nbsp; or read of such a case though. IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
