    Unlisted RPM 1899S Barber Dime

    Getting ready to list what's left of my formally complete Barber Dime set. Noticed this Extra Fine 1899S RPM; haven't been able to locate a listing (Cherry pickers, Wexler). Any help as to value or other information would be appreciated.

            Is it machine doubling?

              Wow, what a nice find! I can't find any attribution reference on this one anywhere. Likely a new find.

                  It looks like a little on the east side of the south loop but the rest looks like a RPM!!!

                    Or maybe a smaller "S" over a larger one

                      Interesting.
                      I see what appears to be a split bottom serif and a notched/offset upper serif (west and a little north?). What direction would everyone say is the secondary RPM in relation to the primary?
                      At first glance I thought the strong secondary profile was part of the RPM, but something seems off with it.
                      What say you, ladies and gentlemen?
                      I thank you in advance for increasing my understanding and knowledge (if I can just remember where I left my memory this time)

                        To me it looks west and slightly rotated counter clock wise!!!

                          Is the secondary profile any part of the RPM? It doesn't seem to have the same shape on the upper section of the MM.

                            John Wexler has sent me the infornation for submission for proper attribution. Wouldn't it be a hoot if this turns out to be an inverted RPM. Should be hearing back in a few weeks.
