Can't find the correct RPM attribution for this MM. It's clearly rotated, splits on the upper & lower serifs, with a long split on the lower serif. Any thoughts?

Maybe RPM-026 on coppercoins, but I'm not sure. Nice rpm!

Way to zero in Greg! I thought it was the 026 at first, but, I have one already; the MM position is slightly different and I'm missing all the die markers. This one may be going to Bob for attribution someday. Appreciate the input!

No problem Kevin. Glad I could offer some input.

Nice find Kevin. I did an overlay with 026 and it fits pretty snug. But if the markers aren't there then maybe it is a new one. We'll keep our fingers crossed.
Here is the overlay just for kicks.

Similar to WRPM-045 also. Let us know what you find out.

Kevin, I am thinking it is 1MM-026 also. Pretty heavy die flow lines on your copy, so it is a much later die state coin than the one on CC. Rock put up a great overlay. I do have that coin in my personal collection, so I would be happy to positively ID it for you if you wish.

I'll send it along to you tomorrow Bob if that's' ok, along with a couple other new ones I would like for you to attribute.
