Another BWR find (http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1960&die_id=1960d1mm006&die_state=mds). Probably a VV Stage D (http://varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%202/1960DRPM006.htm). I could not ID any of CC or VV die markers. Thanks for looking.

Definitely something going on on the west side of the mm, nice! Maybe an early die state, the mm looks spot on but I don't see any of the die scratches at the date that the CC shot shows.

Nice looking RPM Larry J! It probably is an earlier die state, coin looks to be in very good condition too! Congrats!

Nice find Larry... Does yours have the die crack on the forehead??? If not I think it is a EDS/Stage A... VV starts at Stage B http://varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%202/1960DRPM006.htm and the cracked fore head doesn't show until Stage D... Also your secondary MM looks stronger than the VV Stage B sample!!!

I don't see the cracked forehead but that doesn't mean it is not there. I always have difficulty seeing that die marker.

The cracks can be really difficult to see unless you're lucky enough to get the light at the correct angle and intensity... If you don't see it I would bet yours is EDS/Stage A!!!
