<p>[QUOTE="jay4202472000, post: 2762977, member: 42573"]Mint marks were hand punched on cent dies through 1989. However this is zinc rot as stated above. A small hole in the copper plating allows moisture in and the zinc reacts. It can easily push the copper plating up which would give the impression of it being raised. Also, D over horizontal D RPMs were not solely on wheat cents. There is one in 1961. It's a Cherrypicker's Guide variety.</p><p><br /></p><p>1985-D RPM link:</p><p><a href="http://varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%202/RPMs%201985D.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%202/RPMs%201985D.htm" rel="nofollow">http://varietyvista.com/02b LC RPMs Vol 2/RPMs 1985D.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>1961D-RPM-001 (FS-501) D/D/D Horizontal west, lower serif:</p><p><a href="http://varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%202/1961DRPM001.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%202/1961DRPM001.htm" rel="nofollow">http://varietyvista.com/02b LC RPMs Vol 2/1961DRPM001.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I found the images of mine.
