2,3,6, and 8 show the same mintmark punch damage.
1947-S RPM-002
S/S North
1947-S RPM-003
S/S North
1947-S RPM-006
S/S East
1947-S RPM-008
S/S East
Note different areas are mention on some, and not even considering Punch damage as part of the RPM. It was the state the punch was in when these dies had the mintmark punch added to the hardened die.
