I need help with this one. I think It might just be a 1956D/S OMM #2. I can not locate any of the die markers. But I did do an overlay and is lines up perfectly. I need some opinions please. Here are the pictures: they are all the same coin with 2 different lighting angles. The last one is my my overlay.

The late die state of this coin is what shows the 'S' best. There is little doubt that you have the coin though Dave. Nice job on the overlay.

Thanks Bob. After posting this thread I looked into the die markers CONECA has listed for RPM 12 and there is a die marker listed of a die chip in the right cross bar of the T in CENT. Is this that die chip in my picture below? Can you confirm it from one of your OMM 2's.
Thanks,
Dave

Dave,
Your overlay pretty much confirms that this is the correct attribution for this coin. Your pic of the die marker (die chip on the T of CENT) is inconclusive based on the condition of the coin. Below is a pic of the die chip from one of my coins.

Nice find Dave!
I cannot figure out how anyone could actually see that on even a bu coin ... wow!

Thank you Bob for taking the time to photograph and post that picture for me, I really appreciate it. But you are right my coin is not is the best shape for finding die markers.
Thanks Jean and Rock for your thoughts as well.
My first OMM find!
