RPM #13; Coppercoins: 1986D-1MM-013 Comments: This
variety was originally listed by CONECA as RPM #6, but was delisted. Additionally, the exact same coin was later
re-listed by CONECA as RPM #13, where it remains as the current listing. The original CONECA coin was submitted by
Delma K Romines; see carbon spots left of lower mint mark and above mint mark. Photos of the RPM #6 listing can be seen in The
RPM Book Second Edition: Lincoln Cents by James Wiles, PhD and the RPM #13
listing at VarietyVista.com. Overlay of
the below coin to the RPM #6 listing shows the coins to be identical in position, though the RPM
#13 listing remains at an angle and cannot be used for overlay.
