<p>[QUOTE="Clutchy, post: 2049196, member: 45040"]Ok. Now I see the worn dies that jallengomez is talking about. If you see a ridge, that seems to take away from a device, rather add to it, its usually die wear. I keep a few coins with little to no die wear, to compare the devices. Most mintmarks show some sort of "doubling" (1989 and older) because they were hand punched multiple times. And the odds are against you that you'll be able to punch those tiny mintmarks perfectly, so unless you see atleast a split in one serif (the area that most commonly show some doubling), its not a RPM worth documenting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
