I know there was a lot of dismal MM punching and reuse during these year. This MM is a mess and has me perplexed. I'm inclined to attribute as Stage C RPM-007

But I so want to see a D there, thoughts?

IMHO I don't think it's a match for 007.

That is an interesting one.
Looks like there might be a die chip affecting it on the bottom of the upper serif.
