    I'm having trouble counting the steps and did my best with photos. I get at least 4 but hoping for 5.

    I could use a better close-up, but I really don't see five.

    That D looks like an RPM is it?

    What's an RPM?

    RPM stands for repunched mint mark. It looks like there is another D just west of the original D. D/D can you take a close up of the mint mark?

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    I think it is a function of the blurry photography and the lighting, not an RPM.

    also, it is far better to take the coin out pre-photos, so these tired eyes can see the coin
