1950 D RPM

Found this one the other day, but it's been crazy and didn't have time to post it. Pity it has that big scrape above the 9 . I believe it is VV's Stage C. CC

Very nice pics and great job on the attribution Rowdy! That's a fine looking RPM! Congrats!

Thanks Viv. I have a couple more I havent had time to work on. I've been searching when I get home and setting aside anything that looks interesting for attribution later. I need to stop that.

You're welcome Rowdy! It's okay to set things aside, we all do that and call it different things. Jon has the aggravation can, I have a box of so many that I am making myself work through them before I get another brick

Nice find... Attribution looks pretty good... Does the crack between the 9 and 5 make the turn south like VVs Stage C??? The scrape above the 9 looks like a lamination with displaced metal from normal circ wear??? If you notice the lamination starts at the 1 and runs ENE... There also appears to be a lamination starting to open up beginning at the SW corner of the 1 running NNW??? Hard to tell for sure tho!!!

Thanks, Jim. The crack between the 9 and 5 does make the curve South. Now that you mention it, I suppose that scrape above the 9 could be a lamination with displaced metal, but I'm not sure. I'll try to get a better look at it and the one coming off the SW of the 1 later. Thanks for your help.
