Nice find! This is RPM-001 FS-501: http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20...6DRPM001.htmThe D/Shadow D is actually FS-508 that looks like this:   Two very different RPM. So while your coin is not the D/Shadow D, it's still an awesome and strong variety.  -CH27

A RPM will show evidence of a second or more punching on the die. Being a larger mintmark is not a RPM. It has to show punches to see a RPM:  Note how large this mintmark is? But it is not a RPM. Why? Because there is no evidence of a second or more punching on the mintmark area. Different types of RPMs:   Direction on RPMs:  Difference between and Tilted an Rotated RPM?  To know is better than guessing. Seeing is understanding. Now you can understand what you are looking at/for. CoopHome: Why are some enlarged mintmarks, not a RPM? need to see multiple punches on the mintmark area.
