It's not the most interesting date for variety searching, nothing Cherrypicker's Guide notable for sure. But take a look at a couple closeups of this example. I'm in the middle of going through 15 BU rolls. 4 rolls in pops up an interesting and possibly new RPM/OMM. The line is raised with subsequent die file lines running perpendicular, so it couldn't be that. Let me know what you guys think, maybe a S/S or S/D or nothing at all? If I find another one in the last 11 rolls, that might confirm things better.

Looks like a die scratch. You mint mark has horizontal and vertical die scratches. It is not a RPM as it looks nothing like a mint mark punch would leave. The middle mark on the lower serif is from a damaged mint mark punch. So it is a normal coin. Sorry.
Rest in Peace

Kookoox, you must have got your rolls where I got my two, those markings look really familiar, thought it odd to have multidirectional die scratches like those.
