      Looks like a die chip to me.

      Looks like a RPM s/s to me. Is there a known s/d for the date?

      I vote for an S/S, too. It looks like the lower serif, and the base seems to match the curve.

      S/S
      The most money I made are on coins I haven't sold.

      RPM, instead of an OMM.

      It's a 46-S. I found many slightly repunched mint marks but this was the widest spread I could find. I was thinking S/S but when I took pics it looked like a D. mike image

      I was going to guess 1946S RPM#2, but I couldn't find a picture.

      Is there doubling on United States and EPU as well?

      RPM S/S. And a really nice one also. Look to the southeast for a better outline.
      Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

      I'll let you know when I get I get Vol 2 of the CPG... imageimage

      If it's the one I'm guessing it is, they are about $30-$50 in BU.

        Hey Mike, On an RPM there is no other doubling anywhere else on the coin, unless there is a doubled die coin which also happens to have a secondary, unrelated, RPM variety.

          Yes, I agree- I was just responding to a question from Spinynorman. mike

          This is about the best I can come up with for attributing it without a guide. I took the picture from this auction, outlined the mm in red, and overlayed your picture on it. I can't tell for sure, but it looks possible.

          Wow! Thanks Spinynorman! I'll have to look closer for the doubling- it must be very very slight if it's there. I have some fresh eye's this morning image. mike

          Well..... an overlay isn't always accurate... MM positions do tend to float around... so an overlay doesn't determine an RPM, just that this die had a different MM position from this die...

          How about this -1975 S over D ?

        • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

          @bramn8r ... Just to reaffirm the input from your other post.... No... it is Post Mint Damage (PMD). Cheers, RickO
