    1948D RPM but where is it listed?

    This is a really cool RPM for 1948 but not seeing a listing unless its a different stage? It appears to be going in a south west angle from middle of mint mark. Plus I think I see some evidence of a tilted RPM too. I need to pick at it a little better to see more detail around mint mark but here is the idea in what Im seeing. Maybe someone will want to see this one.

    It has lots of verdigris and has had a hit on the mintmark as well Jacob. My gut says it is nothing but maybe when you remove some of the gunk, it will show something else. These circulated coins make it difficult to properly ID any variety if it is indeed a variety.

      I'll work on it in a bit but yes it does have doubling below mint mark too. Before even picked at it I could see line inside. Will post better pics in a bit bud. Thanks.

        I'm really excited to share results of it picked at a bit. It is indeed an RPM and a good one too all I can say is it is cool. My camera battery is charging at the moment and you guys will like this one. The outside left surprised me when ved was picked at. It shows another raised mint mark going diagonal to the left WOW. Sorry just excited.

          We can make a better determination once we see the new pics. Will give an opinion then...OK?

            Here it is and no doubt. Now more I cleared area up more strongly it showed. Now it don't appear to be going south west but is going south. With that is also a tilted RPM. I had a heck of time getting stuff out inside RPM. Pieces of toothpick kept falling back inside D and worked on it more than I cared for.

              It appears to have some possibilities, but I just can't tell with the photos provided. I may ask you to send it to me when I get caught up with things here.
