<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jcuve, post: 717868, member: 13945&quot;]MD does not have to look the same, it is can be inconsistent in regards to direction and severity on different parts of the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>What you have is not a RPM, it isn&#039;t even doubling, it is MD - and MD looks doubled but it is not - it is just part of the design that has been compressed by the die after the strike due to loose parts on the machine striking the coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>I strongly suggest you spend more time studying RPMs, die doubling and other forms of doubling - simultaneously you should be searching more coins, put questionable ones with &quot;doubling&quot; to the side and study them together. After finding any possible variety, it is advisable to look at the listings for the year and Mint - have you done this for the &#039;69S? CONECA lists 5, CC 6 and Wexler at least 9. There are no RPMs with a north spread listed for the &#039;69S that I can find. None listed have such a wide spread, that should tell you something. The &#039;69S is a heavily searched year for the Lincoln cent, that should also tell you something.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
