:squigglemouth: I'm really clueless on this one. I have a FS-025.5 DDO-001/RPM-100 and this one comes close to/similar to matching it.
However this one does not have the RPM and the over date(?) is stronger on this one and more pronounced. The Liberty has a "CHIP" between the legs of the "R" also.
Give me your best opinions as to what I have found. This coin was in a roll of 1960-D I had stored away.

I have seen this frequently on the date for 1960-D both LD and SD. I'm not sure about the exact cause but it's not an overdate as it only appears on top of the numerals. Maybe really deep devices cause the marks to appear.

That's what puzzles me is the definition of the separation lines on the over date(?) and it must be a small/large if it is an over date. Thanks for your input.

Hi:
sort of looks like the overdate - small over large - vis a versa?

Hard to say just looking at photos but I think I would lean toward ejection doubling. Just my guess at it.

Thanks Steven for your input. A good possibility and this would be a very strong ejection doubling. Joe
