Let us try this one step at a time. Do you think this is a triple S mint mark?

The marks in the center of the loops are not RPMs.

Then this coin will only be a 1947S clip not a S/S/S. Die markers seem to match this to a 1947S-1MM-006.

An overlay show the 006 is slight further north than Al's coin. None of the RPM is visible on the coin. Markers don't always confirm a RPM/doubled die. The dies go through the same processes over and over and the same events happen. So a die crack on the 12 column in the 1959-64 cents is very column to find chips on. On the wheat cents is it very common to see die chips on the T of CENT. Clashes, polishing, cracks often happen in the same places. So it is best to determine if it is a variety first, instead of find markers first and see if it is a variety.
