    1952D RPM first one

    Need help attributing this coin, it is the first RPM I have ever found personally. Not sure what that extra metal flow on it is. Any help would be appreciated. There is nothing wrong with the reverse, if you need a pic of it, I will be happy to add it. Thanks for looking.

    Welcome to the forum!
    Yes, that is an RPM (either rotated or tilted). Here is a link to check through the listings. Put in 1952 for the date, Denver for mintmark, and click "mintmark varieties". See if you can match one up by using die markers/mintmark location. http://coppercoins.com/advsearch.php

      Welcome to LCR chzman. You will find much more knowledgeable people on here than CCF for sure.

        Thank you guys for that welcome. Seal, I believe that the 6 matches up the best like you said on CCF but how do I figure out where that extra metal flow came from?

            Welcome to the forum!
            It could be CONECA RPM 006 or 024 (not CC 1MM-024 which is different). Is there a die chip on the T in CENT? Is that anomaly near the D a hit?

              I think it is too far south to be the #24.

                That metal is raised and I will upload a pic of the reverse in just a few minutes.

                  If it is raised I am leaning toward it being a die chip.

                        I have the obverse of 006 HERE. I don't have a shot up of the crack on the T. What you have could be a later stage of 006 or another similar RPM not listed by CONECA. Wexler has a bunch of others. Maybe PM or email Wiles and get his view.

                            GrumpyEd, mine looks identical to one of those but with the RPM of course. I like the term "flying D" that break looks just like 1 wing anywho.

                            jcuve - I clicked on that link but the picks did not show a reverse of the 1952D
