I don't think it is WRPM-003. The OP's close up shows the top of the secondary MM farther north.
(and VV won't open)

Thanks for the replies. I looked on Coinfacts because if I send to PCGS, I wanted to see what they have certified as FS-501; however, the top three all looked different from each other.

I will spend more time on this tomorrow but something is eschew. Different listings do not match, descriptions are different and of different pics I have looked at, the mm locations are different. Need some time to check this one out....

The OP's photos are of 1968 S, while the links posted are to a 1969 S. Oh boy, I'm glad you caught that, thanks! Mods, this title should be 1969-S instead of 1968-S. The pics of the mint mark is correct; however, the full quarter view is incorrect. (Fixed)

Well, this would explain my confusion when checking out listings.... So we are dealing with a 69S, correct? Here is a comp of the coin facts pics that you had links to and yours. The left pic looks to be RPM-002, the middle pic RPM-001 and then yours on the far right. Yours does not look to match ether. I think the reason for the confusion with the coin facts is that one gets an FS# for the RPM and the other gets the FS# for the DDO it is paired with, two totally different dies, as you can see by the mm location. I would add VV links but they have not been working for me when I download them on here for some reason, this has been this way for a week or so for me, not sure if it is this way for others.  -makecents-

Yep, I posted for the same reasoning -makecents- mentioned above. Given the coinfacts showed similar, I wanted to get other opinions.
