My first attempt at this. How bad did I screw it up, lol?

First one I am guessing 002 LDS. Some markers are hard or impossible to see due to wear, I guess, but the crack at the wheat stalk is clear enough.

The other one I am guessing 005. The marker above GOD is there, but either worn or LDS? You tell me. Thanks.

First one is definitely RPM-002... I have a BU example here with the crack as well, nice find!

They both look good to me. Well done! Its almost always more difficult to find markers on well circulated coins. I think both of your coins are MDS from what I can see. If the die crack on the skull is there for the -002, I would call that one LDS, but I'm still leaning toward MDS. Keep up the good work!

Yeah, not really seeing the skull crack. Thanks much.

Thanks everyone. Well, with no dissenters, I will label my flips in pen this way. Thanks so much to everyone who replied, and to everyone who helped create and add to the coppercoins website. This place is a rookie's godsend. Thanks.
