Lucked out on recent purchase. Advertised as 3 cent nickel clash and lamination, not RPD.

I was hoping to get your opinions on the following:
Is an RPD-001 not really an RPD, and just looks like one because of there are clash marks inside the 8s in the date, or is it a bonafide RPD?
Is it pretty uncommon to have these 3 issues on an 1881 3CN specifically? I didn't see any others online. Is it pretty uncommon just in general?
Is there PMD west of the lamination, or is that just the result of the lamination?
I was thinking of sending it in to NGC to get the VP designation. Would they also give it the die clash and major reverse lamination designation?

What is the 'VP designation'?

VP is NGC's custom designation for varieties that are not CPG varieties. They are attributed under NGC VarietyPlus, hence VP.
