Hate to be the bearer of bad news but that is not 1 it has 2 MMs :LOL_Hair: Excellent find... By the loops weakness of the secondary MM yours looks like it could be a later die stage than VVs Stage G http://www.varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%202/1960DRPM001.htm Does yours have the die crack on the head... Your full obv pic blurred to much for me to tell but it does look to be there and is much stronger???

I am gullible enough that you had me going there for a moment.:O
Will look for the crack a bit later and take a pic -- I have never had much luck finding the head cracks as markers.
Now that is out of the way it is time to reverse the numbers and find the '100' variety from 1960.:D

:sign10: At least it was just a moment :LOL_Hair: My trick to finding the head cracks is to use a mirror in each hand and the medicine cabinet mirrors at the same time... I see all kinds of cracks that way :LOL_Hair: If the cracks are early in their life or worn heavily all you can do is try different light angles... Aren't you glad there aren't 1000 60D RPMs :LOL_Hair:
