Went through about 100 1953 D LWC and found a few errors / varieties.
I think I found two RPM FS-501. No markers since these are BN circulated coins, but I don't know of any other variety has the "D" mint mark completely under the "5". The way it is formed also looks right. One had the Ring of Death damage, but below is the better grade.

That's a really nice RPM and on my favorite's list. Downside is that this is one of the most common varieties among all cherrypicker varieties and so the value is pretty low. I've seen really nice BU examples, fully and correctly attributed, go for $8.

Thanks all. I knew it must be common since I am at a 2% find rate. I did get a bit lucky, since there can't be 14 million of these out there? Was this a working hub doubling with multiple working dies then punching out the coins?
