    1953 D/D which rpm?

    For the past couple of months I have been getting maybe $5-$10 in rolls at various branches of my bank and recently started getting boxes. I've gone through about 4, and aside from providing me quite a bit of entertainment (and grief, I hate those plastic tubes) I seem to be finding some interesting things, like this 53-D/D...

    I'm leaning towards this one being the rpm 1 although I can't really see some of the die scratches on mine. I was thinking it could just be a different die state than the photos I looked at...any thoughts?

    RPM-001 for sure. The location of the mintmark give it away. Nice coin.

      thanks, I was pretty sure it was right under the 5, but sometimes the differences between one variety and another are just too minute for me to tell!

        That is definitely one sweet coin. Congrats!

          I don't think I've ever seen the mint mark directly under the third digit...nice find!
