1961-D RPM-001 Lincoln cent RPM - AU
Reference Item Number: 180305008
One of the top tier Lincoln cent repunched mint marks (RPM) - this die shows a D punched over a horizontal D with little or no effort to remove the errant punch before completing the corrected punch! Not common, especially in this condition!
As a seller I believe in full disclosure by way of a detailed description and large, clear photographs when warranted, but many less expensive and bulk items make more sense to carry with 'sample' photographs rather than photographing each individual lot sold. For that reason, if the description above specifies that a stock image is used, be aware that the items you will receive are in like kind to the images provided, but WILL NOT be the exact same items.
