First of all, I am back! In 2017, I sorta left the coin collecting hobby as school and sports pretty much took over my life. I was in the middle of high school getting bombarded with work, while also playing sports year-round (volleyball, ice hockey, and baseball). I didn't really have any time for coin collecting and I lost interest over time. However, the coronavirus came around and has left me stuck at home with little school work to complete and no sports to play. This led to my interest in coin collecting re-emerging.

Anyway, I was going through my wheat cents looking for errors and varieties that I may have missed in the past, and I came across this 1951-D Lincoln Cent. I believe that this coin is a match with the RPM-003 as listed on Wexler's site and Variety Vista. I apologize if the photos aren't great. I took them with an iPhone 8 Plus and a 10x jeweler's loupe.

If anyone can confirm or deny that this coin is the RPM that I think it is, that would be great!

Here's the mint mark:
Possibly?-1951-D-Lincoln-Cent-RPM-003
Possibly?-1951-D-Lincoln-Cent-RPM-003

And the die break on the T in CENT:
Possibly?-1951-D-Lincoln-Cent-RPM-003
Possibly?-1951-D-Lincoln-Cent-RPM-003

And finally the die break on the wheat grains:
Possibly?-1951-D-Lincoln-Cent-RPM-003
Possibly?-1951-D-Lincoln-Cent-RPM-003

Just checked CC-VV and WEX and your coin does not match. I do not think your coin is a RPM at all,sorry.

Well at least you didn't use the 'P' word. That bugs me more. Considering the U.S. mint has never struck a penny. Only non collectors call them that.
