    Found in a bank roll of cents along with a 1920, I have never seen an RPM on a cent from 1929. IMG_2555.JPG

    2016 - 1929 = 86

    86 Years of Circulation and bouncing around in a jar will cause wear and tear on any coin. Especially on a Copper Cent. IMHO I don't think it's a RPM just a smooshed MM

    I'll try to do so and repost, but under scope it is an s over s. Weird I have found references to this coin on the internet. I don't recall if it was Ken P., David W., or who's site. Thank You Very Much Max.

    I like your coin. But it looks as if someone cleaned it. That's not a natural color for an uncleaned cent. But it is a color of a cleaned cent. I could be wrong, it's just my opinion. As for the mintmark being s over s, I am not sure, it doesn't appear to be.

    What a discovery, and it's a sideways S, too! :D

    I hope that this image is better for judging the mm. Thanks All for your help!

    Thanks, Paddyman. After a year or more of penny roll hunting, I have just signed up with the PCGS Club which allows me free grading of eight coins. I've never had a coin slabbed before. I hope to be in Long Beach if I can bring my Service Companion.
    Stay Well and Thanks Again,
    Chad

    It looks to me that even the date is doubled. Certainly the 2 and the first 9. Am I the only one who sees this? I often see that which I desire. And I waste a lot of time in the process.
