    Extra copper ? or RPM?

    My first instinct was that it does not look right but I figured I would post to be sure . This was tough to take a pic of I will post more if needed .It did not match up with anything at Coppercoins , so I was thinking extra copper or die chip? Vickilynn

      It looks more like a die gouge than a die chip. I would say most certainly not an RPM though. Interesting find.

        Actually Jody, I believe it's a die gouge.

          And here I was content in the thought that I was the first to provide an answer. Beat to the punch again.

            That one is called the 'Flying D' as the anomaly looks like a wing. I have a few of this particular die. I really like it!

              No Bob, it's not a wing, it's a die gouge. I'm pretty sure on this one...

                Only 'pretty sure'? So you don't know then?

                  Rats, I was going to say it was the Flying D but Bob beat me to it. Oh well, maybe it came from the Flying D Ranch. Interesting coin non the less.

                    Remember Bob, die varieties are COMPLETELY subjective.....

                      Definitely a "wing" the PUP is how the end "feathers" out
