    Is this an RPM?

    I am not convinced that this in an RPM, but it is certainly interesting...

    Looks close to CopperCoin's 1MM-001.
    Can't see any markers because there is no full reverse or obverse images.
    Can you post a full coin shot of the obverse and reverse?

        I was looking through them when you posted I guess Cliff. You beat me!! The 001 looks to be the best match though.

          I think you got it right Jon, if it is an RPM.

            It does look like 1MM-001, does it have the lines below god?

            Link to 001 on CC

              While my coin is worn, I took two marker photos and tried to orient them the same was you see them on CC...

              The first one... the marker above the "1" in the date seems to be a match.

              The second one... the lines from the scalp toward "God" seem to be similar.

              What do you think?

                I think it is.

                Look at the line that starts at the hair and aims at the bottom center of the O of god, it looks right. The one above the 1 seems to match.

                Most of all, the MM position and doubling on it look right.

                  I agree with Ed.
                  This is definitely a tough one because of circulation. It was difficult to tell if the doubling on the MM to the east was doubling or a hit but the images of the markers help a lot. Well done.
