On a RPM, there need to be spread between the punches of the die. I see none of this on your coin. Just incuse marks from coin contact. As already mentioned, take a look at the listed RPMs for this year and note how the mintmarks are enlarged, and showing spread on them:

Note that even the smaller RPMs, show a rise from the fields, others showing spread between the punching. MD and coin damage is often just an incuse mark on the device. Not a spread, but an incuse area that many look at. Look for the spreads on RPM and doubled dies, not the reductions on the outside edges of devices. Look for the spread.
