Lately, I have been delving deeper into inverted mint marks. I am confused by PCGS on the 1941-S Jefferson nickel, specifically the FS-503 inverted small S mint mark. The note below appears on the registry set page. Despite that, PCGS still has a landing page for that variety with no additional verbiage. I searched for information on a debunked IMM, but all I found was a random coin forum discussion that contained only vague speculation involving Variety Vista. My 5th edition Cherrypicker's Guide still shows the small-S IMM as a valid entry.

Anybody have insight into what happened to FS-503?

Just wanted to circle back to this one, and see if any 6th edition CPG owners have any information on this variety. Valid? Debunked? Other?

Well, got my ebay pick today. It's a head scratcher to me. Maybe aside from the weird little bent tail, we are meant to look at that deep eye shape of the upper S? I tried comparing it to the Wexler listing and a couple PCGS FS-503 examples.
