Thought I would check for varieties before I go to sell this dime I've had for a long time and it looks like it is an S/S, but I can't quite figure out which one it is. I'm not really seeing any of the other markers. The closest seems to be RPM-103. I can take additional photos but I didn't see anything noteworthy.

    Looks more like die wear/damage to me

    Looks like it might be the RPM-001. Variety Vista lists this one.

    Can't be this one. It's the wrong style S.

    Agree that it looks like the wrong style 's'. I have to go with worn / deteriorated die as I do not see any sign of an underlying mint mark.

    Yes, you are correct regarding the wrong type S.
