S looks funny to me, don't know if its some sort of doubling or re-punched... please help

I tried to get a full rotation on the mint mark hoping it would help.

With the first 3 pictures I was getting rotation phobia, but with the last one I see a smaller 'S' MM under maybe a larger one.

Can this be right?

sorry for the rotation bit. but I do think it has 2 S one at a slight angle from the other, but I'm not sure how that can be, everything I Can find online says there should not be a 1974s RPM so how do I know for sure?

few things here:

1. This coin is damaged. It is also very harshly cleaned.

2. No website of any reputation would state there should not be an RPM for 1974S cents. It might say there is not one known to them, but nobody knows for sure that there aren't any doubled dies or repunched mintmarks for any issue for which not all the different dies used are specifically recorded.

ok, coppercoins... can you tell me why you think it is damaged?

I understand about the cleaning but I didn't do that. it came that way..

I would really like to understand how a coin can be damaged to look like there is an extra letter. do you have a link to examples?
