Here is another one from the lot I am having trouble identifying. It was labeled as RPM #16.

Scooby, not having a picture of the #16, I can't say, one way or another. But, for my money, it is a strong contender for the #1. What do the markers indicate?
is there a big blob on the upper right corner of the building?
A small die scratch, angling toward the rim, at the lower left corner of the building at K-7:30?

No. The die chip/break is not there, the die crack is not there. I didn't really notice any identifiable markers except for the small die gouge below the mm best seen in the last pic.

From the RPM book it matches #16 in shape of the RPM. As far as location, it appears close. But it is hard to tell for sure because the digits of the date in the book are partly missing and it makes it harder to tell exactly where the two should match. Probably another one Bob would like to compare and add to the site.

Thanks guys. I'll add it to the list to ask him about if I don't hear from him about it first. I have more!
