It could be a well placed die chip.

I first thought S also. Why not ? Would be a new one. Long shot, D over RPM S :)

The D/horiz.D is RPM-001, or FS-05-1942D-512 (027) These are more indicative of that particular piece. There are at least a dozen "S" RPMs, but no D/S or S/D. I'm leaning toward the chip theory.Perhaps the lack of the north bar. Very neat, though.

Thanks for al the information.
I dont know if I may ask, but is this coin something worth for collectors? Because you can't find it in the books.

I'm thinking PMD on both accounts.

RPM means "re-punched mintmark". There were many instances of mint marks being punched into the die in the wrong position. They were then repunched into (presumably) the right place and traces of the first mint mark can still be seen in the finished coin. PMD means "post mint damage". Any kind of damage that happens after the coin leaves the mint is PMD. I don't know about the mintmark on your nickel but the misshapen letters in In God We Trust are probably PMD.
