I believe I have a Repunched date. Anyone else of the same opinion? And how would I go about having it attributed? Would the cost be prohibitive? Thanks all opinions and information welcome.

    Yes, a very nice RPD.
    It is listed in Flynn's book as KF-5.
    He says it is scarce.
    There are more diagnostics if you need them to attribute it.

    He posts here....or used to, anyway. I can't remember his handle here.
    I haven't seen anything from him here for a while though.

    KF-5 mannie?
    Maybe Kevin Flynn sold me a faulty volume.

    I know little about two-cent pieces. I always turn to PCGS's Coinfacts in such cases.

    I looked through images of 1864 RPD's and couldn't see anything that looked like yours (with the prominent doubling on the 6 and 4, not the 8). I'm not sure I was thorough.

    I'd suggest you do that. Review the images ("Show related coins and varieties") and see if you can find a match. If you can, then to get it graded and attributed by PCGS will cost $60 or more, including shipping. If yours has a "problem" like cleaning or damage it may not be worth submitting.

    I agree with Lance.

    The certification number is 04397661 i think it’s being auctioned on eBay without the attribution as PCGS will not recognize it but my coin and that one are alike minus the grade and color

    This particular RPD is not recognized by our hosts. NGC recognizes this at a VP- 007 Not sure what premium is associated with this as its well circulated and kinda beat up.

    I personally wouldn’t send it.

    I’d still like to have it authenticated and slabbed as I’m a collector and I don’t usually make money off of my coins, thank you for the information though

    He posted a couple of threads here last week.
