You could probably just take a picture through a loupe.

Seems to get worse. Last pic is a small BIE variety error I just noticed. Hope this helps while I try something ese. Velcroed my loup to my tablet for these.

Hahaha  If you move you loupe back and forth, you can find focus.

That just looks like a normal 1955-S with PMD, but I can't be too sure with these photos. Maybe someone else can come along and help identify it. Could you take another of what you think is the BIE variety?

If you are referring to the raised area in the lower serif area, that is from a damaged punch. You will find this on many dies, even normal ones. I when through a OBW roll once and all 50 had the same type of mark I sorted them out, then realized they were from different dies all showing the same damaged punch mark. So it happens often on the search for RPMs.

What I find interestin is finding these on all the 1955-S I've found in those old wheatbacks. Theses are all in MSU condition.
