Yes curly, but not from being an RPM. It could be a little circulation damage.

Yes, I'm thinking some circulation damage--the cumulative result of dings and hits. I've see similar dime mint marks over may years on well-circulated coins.

Notice how the 85 took a big circulation hit and flattened them out? Same thing for the MM but just the left portion took a hit flattening it out and making the MM thinner.

The mint mark looks like either MD and or DDD and a worn die.
