That is sure a whopper of a find klocckwork!
Gotta be a 1952D-1MM-021 D/D/D unless they have a brand new one that would fit better.
Congrats!

I think that this is not the 1952P-1MM-021. Appears to be just the die crack with a similar but slightly different crack pattern but lets see what Bob has to say. Hard to say if it is an RPM without a clearer photo.

Although the die crack is similar (right down to the chip), there are two reasons why this one is not RPM-021. First is the shape of the die crack itself. Compare yours with the one from the actual RPM die crack below. Notice that the RPM die crack is at about a 90 degree angle. Yours looks wider. Also, note the lower serif. The RPM has three serifs on the lower portion of the mintmark, and is pretty wide. The upper serif on the RPM also 'flares' up, and is not straight across. I do not see that on yours. Based on this info and analysis (which I pretty much do every time I attribute a coin), I would say your coin is not RPM 021. Lastly is the mintmark position. Yours is further south than the RPM. I see little that would make it an RPM unless I was able to determine otherwise with an in hand examination. Sorry....

Position and die crack and the fact it is missing the D/D/D CW MMs would indicate it can not be a 1mm-021
