Appears to me to be environmental damage. Stains and corrosion. Don't see any doubling.

Congrats to the winners...........

AU-50

Looks like it may be an RPM#3. There were so may rpm's for 1960 it sometimes takes a lot of research to attribute.

Steven_B

Just an opinion, but with the dull surfaces, pitting and the apparent erosion of the copper layer it appears that this occurred as post strike damage. Possibly some sort of acid dip.

Thanks again Daniel... Received it today

Steven_B

Thanks for another great contest and for a bit more knowledge....

1). 1912-S Liberty V Nickel and the 1909-S VDB Lincoln Cent - Lowest mintages in their series 2). 1916-D Mercury Dime and the 1914-D Lincoln Cent - Both are highly counterfeited or faked 3). 1937D Three Leg Buffalo - Polishing to remove clash marks also removed the leg. Don't know if I am on the rig...

MS 65

These appear to me as random hits. I see several of them on the obverse and reverse of the coin. Those on the ribbon also do not match up with the angle of the diamonds lines.

Received the FE today Daniel... Thanks again for the contest and the great site.

Steven_B

Is the coin inside a flip or encased in something. If so the photos would probably be a lot better if it wasn't. Sorry hard to tell.

Steven_B

Thanks for the contest..

ALL MS64

Steven_B

Daniel I yield to your grading knowledge. I would have gone with no higher than MS64 and pushing that.

Steven_B

From the looks of the first photo it appears to have took a hit as Daniel stated.

Steven_B

Couple of photos to add to the thread. Sorry I don't have any uncirculated to photograph.

Steven_B

I have to say none of the above. I used to buy but stopped when it became required to use paypal for coins. I used to send out several postal money orders a week but that all came to an end and I have not bought anything from there since. I did not have nor do I now have paypal. It just seems that's...

Steven_B

Die chip

Steven_B

Yes, looks like MD on the date and circulation wear elsewhere.

Steven_B

From what I can see in the photo it looks like it may have been ground off??? You may want to check the weight specs.

Steven_B

Is there a site that list the MPDs with photos for the 3CNs?

Steven_B

The minimal amount that it is rotated would add no significance to the coins value. This is a date/mint that I have not found to add to my collection yet. However I do not actively collect mercury dimes. Nice one.

Steven_B

Well said...........

Steven_B

Wish they had coin shows in my area. Just to far to go to get to any... Very nice coins Daniel.

Steven_B

Has some wear but this is one of my copies of a 1946S with an inverted MM.

Steven_B

Yes this is mine. I took this photo today. I do not grade well but I believe this is an MS-64.

This is kind of getting away from the origional intent of this thread and I am still looking for my copy of a 1946S inverted MM. When/if I find it I will post a photo of it as well.

Steven_B

This is a 1946 S/S/D...The photo was taken while the coin was in a 2X2 thus a bit milky looking.

Steven_B

Very nice pick up!!

Steven_B

I hope we get a chance to see how this turns out.

Steven_B

Wrong mint mark style for the known inverted mint mark. The position of the mm does not look the same as the OMM S/S/D. In my opinion.

Steven_B

I have not been insulting in any of my posts. I have gave only my opinion concerning this thread. When the insults begin as is the comment below the last photo I am done with it.
