[QUOTE="Snowman, post: 8230248, member: 10480"]The 1988 RDV-006 is in the 6th edition Vol.1 of the Cherrypickers guide cent-nickel type.

As with the RDV-006 Mountain man - here is the article that Dr James Wiles wrote to Coinworld back in 2007 about finding the first one. I had to convince him about this variety which a few collectors shot it down from the beginning that there was no such thing.
