I don't see it on PCGS.com's price list and this coin sort of looks like it has an s/s or something similar. Thoughts?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Thank you for the response and the website info, it actually looks a lot like the -008 variety pictured there. I don't think the previous picture did this uncirculated coin proper justice. Maybe this one is a little better.

John1,

Thank you for that link. I had the Website on my favorites but I didn't know about the item specific search.

If you are looking at the SE corner of the mint mark, you can see heavy flow lines and the date shows this as well. The 008 is a NW RPM. Die flow runds in the direction of a rim close by. Maybe closer images might show something that I'm not seeing on your coin. But on the die 008 the arrow on the RPM location.
