There is definitely something in the lower loop of MM. In the upper loop you have to look closely to see what appears to be the curve of another "S". I will probably sent off to Dr. Wiles with some other coins for his opinion. What are your thoughts?

    I vote die chip. I see what your talking about in the upper loop but doesn't seem to line up with what's in the lower loop.

    I think I see slight, and I mean very slight, CCW rotation. I think I see some separation in both the top and bottom serif. Is that what you are referring too?

    Thought is is a die chip. Looking closer, there looks to be some lines in the upper serif that would denote some form of removal attempt.

    It just might be an RPM.
