[QUOTE="Publius2, post: 26464091, member: 105571"]The closest match to photos and written description is RPD-007 described as follows: "Repunched 1 seen above the base and top of the 1. Repunched 8 seen above the middle and top of the 8. Repunched 64 seen above the middle and top of the 64." The attribution is reinforced by the reverse description: "Incomplete D. Very strong clash marks seen below CENTS. STATES OF AMERICA show retooling" Your coin has the incomplete D and I think I see clash marks as described. I can't see tooling in your photo. Obverse description: "Very small die crack from top of the 1 west to the rim. Small die crack from the left banner edge to the left arrow tip through the bottom of IN G. Small die crack through the top of UST of TRUST. Die crack from the right bottom most leaf through the right feathers to the rim." I don't see any of those die cracks in the photos but they might be visible under magnification in hand and under different lighting. Maybe the die crack at UST. There is no listing of a DDO or DDR that includes this RPD.[/QUOTE]
