<p>[QUOTE=&quot;atrox001, post: 310093, member: 1338&quot;]This RPM is from a 64D Kennedy Half&nbsp; Dollar.&nbsp; It is listed in the Wexler Files as WRPM-007, D/D/D horizontal and north, but not listed by CONECA.&nbsp; I and a couple of friends are trying to figure out what happened to create this RPM.&nbsp; Can anyone come up with an explanation of what happened to create this?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>One explanation I thought of&nbsp; could be that a person at the mint who was punching the mint mark into the die first punched an horizontal D, and after realizing it was horizontal, turned the punch CW to the north-south position, but had the punch resting on the die causing a scratch as they turned it.&nbsp; Then punched in a north-south D.&nbsp; After this they didn&#039;t like what they saw and then they sanded away the two punched D&#039;s and scratch, leaving remnants left, north, and a scratch in the middle.&nbsp; Then they punch in the primary D over their mess leaving a 64 D/horizontal D/D north, with a scratch in the center…any other ideas?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank You,</p><p>Larry Nienaber[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
