Neat 1970-S RPM...Lincoln Memorial

I'm admittedly not much of an RPM guy, but this one is pretty bold and evident?

I think that it is characterized as RPM#1 S/S North...I guess there is and East, West and South as well! image

    That is a very nice RPM
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"
  • Yes very nice - is that in mint set celophane?

    Where did you get this round of nice raw Lincolns?

    This variety is regularly found in Mint sets. I still kick myself for getting outbid at a live auction years ago, on a group of five sets all of which contained this variety. I lost them to a guy who wanted the 1970-D halves - I would have given them to him for a chance at the RPM cents.

    These come nice and that's a beaut.

    About 12% of mint set coins are the S/ S and they seem much easier
    than the small date even though it's at 10%. People have cherry picked
    the small date until they're getting really hard to find.

    Not mint cellophane. The coin was still in the cardboard 2x2 when I photographed it.

    Lucky find at the B&M shop! image
