Going through the rest of the 1955s Wheats and found 7 of the same RPM. I am having a hard time trying to ID this one. Having a hard time taking a clear pic of the MM. Also took some photos of the markers that all the coins seem to share.

I do not think that it is a RPM. There are no split serifs and an absence of division lines. I do see some minor Machine Doubling which is common on the mint marks. There is also a slight contact mark as well.

The date might contain the same Machine Doubling in the same direction. Very nice images on the OBV/REV. The images are great!

I see nothing but a normal 1955S cent.

OK, so the raised metal is just extra metal?

Check other examples from that year. Most of them look that way because of a damaged punch. This has happened on other years as well.
