This is a coin I inherited from my dad. We always thought it might be a large over small P rpm. Would like to finally find out if it is. both pics are of the same coin. Any info is greatly appreciated!

Looks like an RPM to me! Nice one :D
Although I don't think it's a large P over a smaller P. Both P's are the same size (I can see why you think otherwise though). The first serif matches with the third serif, the second serif pairs with the lowest serif. Good separation though

I think the OP coin is a regular RPM,nice find.
OcalaFlorida: On RPM#10,It looks like three P's inside the Main P that would make it a PPPP? or is that something else going on inside the main P?

I am not a nickel guy but I don't think it is a rpm 9 or 10 from the pictures,his nickel appears to have separation under the curve of the p and the bottom of his nickel looks a little different just my opinion.that is a nice rpm flick congrats wish I could find one like that.

Could you please try to take a close up picture of the front if it would be rpm 9 the nickel would have a double die obverse.

the 10 listed is regular rpm just 2

yeah the picture does look odd but maybe the second p is coming out the middle of the inside splitting it into 3 lines

its in the free variety vista pdf but that seems to no longer up be on the site

I didn't see a match. The 010 on CONECA the RPM is further south from the devices above the mint mark. It is a nice one though.
