1941-S RPM-004 is the only one that features the S over S South listed on Variety Vista.

I've never seen a Mintmark look like this before . ..

Re: 1941 S Error?
Thank you all for your feedback and information. I have not decided what to do with the coin but will have it examined to know what I have. Years ago, I had John Wexler examine some coins for me; any suggestions?

Re: 1941 S Error?
That's sounds good if that's what you want . Just remember, RPM's are a Variety and don't necessarily hold any other value above face value. I mean, CONECA gives them away for becoming a Member . I have a couple of them. I'm sure others have several. I would check Ebay though there's always something for everyone .

Re: 1941 S Error?
You could do one of three things.
1. Post it on the CONECA forum. If they think it is a new RPM they may ask you to send it in for attribution.
2. Send to to Mr. Wexler
3. Ask Paul if he would look at for you. He is the CONECA WI. State Rep.

Re: 1941 S Error?
Do NOT send it to a slabbing company to get them to figure it out. They do not inspect coins and try to come up with a match for what error/RPM/etc. it might be. You would pay them a lot of money and get a slabbed penny with a grade on it, and wonder why that is all they did.
Paul would be the way to go in this case. Send him an email.

Re: 1941 S Error?
To all who was nice enough to give me advice thank you! I did follow your advice and sent it to Paul to look and inspect it. I will update when Paul gives me the results from investigation.

Re: 1941 S Error?
FYI to everyone.......
I just spoke to J. I just wanted to get his permission to clean the Mintmark.
Keep in mind that Mintmark attributions, such as this, with built-up "Gunk" are not technically possible, see the image I posted here.
Give me some time today, and I will have a image with conclusion.

Re: 1941 S Error?
This is why I discourage many from Mintmark attributions....
