<p>[QUOTE=&quot;FHDave, post: 349910, member: 7359&quot;]Hello all you error collectors!</p><p><br /></p><p>I was looking at a 1972 IKE I have and found what I think is a RPM.&nbsp; Looking for validation that this is a known error (it is not in the IKE book from Wexler et al), I contacted James Wiles from the CONECA group.&nbsp; He indicated that it most likely was machine damage, false doubling.&nbsp; He is willing to validate the coin (for what is a moderate fee IMO), but I was wondering if any RPM experts here can tell me the difference between a real RPM and machine damage?</p><p><br /></p><p>I may send the coin to James Wiles any ways, just for the education it will provide me, but I am hoping to get a better idea from others first.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do not have the ability to get a close up of the coin that shows the mint mark and what looks like doubling.&nbsp; My camera setup does not allow me to get that type of detail.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks.</p><p><br /></p><p>(duh! can an administrator move this to the error forum?&nbsp; forgot I was in &quot;coin chat&quot; when I submitted this)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
