hi, everyone.
just wanted to share this little penny error. I have 4 or 5 of them
in AU condition and easy to match with very well documented on [http://varietyvista.com/02a LC RPMs Vol 1/1955SRPM002.htm]

Thinking at full match with RPM-002 "stage J"

    looks like it

    but if you are going to photo anything for an rpm, it should be the mintmark. i see you have the date/mm. next time get closer to the mm

    I understand it is a common error ?

    it is not an error. it would be a variety

    i can't say exactly how rare it is with the knon number of 55s dies, but this is only 1 dies out of all the 55s dies used. i will say that even at 1 in a million, others will have to desire it enough to pay more for it

    Relativity common. Most miss the RPM because it's so faint and focus on collecting it because of the chips and die breaks in its later die state. Considering how much the die is worn from use with its numerous die breaks, chips, etc., is evidence of it making a bunch of these cents.
