    Nice find... Hope the rest of the coin looks as good... Compared with CCs http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/diest...&die_state=mds and VVs http://varietyvista.com/02b%20LC%20R...987DRPM001.htm I would think yours is and EDS/Stage A... The separation line on yours is nice and strong... Maybe the folks at VV would like to get Stage A pics of yours???

        What a great find! That's one of the hardest 80's RPM's to find in my experience. Its been years and years since I found one. Well done!

          The rest of the cent is beautiful. Please direct me if anyone wishes to catalogue it.

                That is nice... Looks like the VDB is complete and I do not see much in the way of die wear so I think it is a Stage A... Send Dr. Wiles at VV an email http://varietyvista.com/Attribution%20Services.htm (Third paragraph down) See what he says!!!

                  I love how you can see the doubling on the curve of the D. Awesome!

                    I just got the cent back from James today. We were hoping for EDS but The ridge across the to put it at MDS (stage B). Confirmed as a RPM-001. And a nice clean MS find all the same. Cannot complain about Cadillac problems,
