Well i was going through some of my uncirculated cents I came across a couple that look to be repunched mint marks or ovm. They arnt listed in the cherry pickers guide. So im not real sure if im just seeing things or if they really are rpm. Ill try my best to describe them . I could take pictures of them but try as I may, I cant get the details to come out. The area I think the rpm is at.
The first is a 1950D the rmp looks to be just to the north. It mostly is under the major mint mark you can see the top of the bottom one peeking out of the top. You can the lower do on the inside of the major D. The line on the top is pretty faint but you can see it . the D on the inside of the D is much easer to see.
The next is a 1946D the is easer to describe. The lower mint mark is northeast of the major one. You can see the top of the do and where it curves down on the upper left side of the D.
Also here is another question On the 1960D does the 6 show some doubling on the 6 on the inside of the loop . I have a bunch of them that kinda looks it could be a little hook.attached to the end of the loop on the inside of the 6.
Thanks in advance.

Your 1950D is probably either die#5 or die#6, I currently have no photos to show.
Your 1946D is probably either die#3 or die#4. There are other possibilities....take a look here.
As for the 1960D, the "doubling" inside the 6 indicates that you probably have a small date - die breaks inside the 6 are more common than clean (no die break) coins. I very highly doubt it is a doubled die.
You can send any or all of those coins to me and I can attribute them for you. If you happen to have a new die, I will credit the find to you. PM for address if interested.
Edited to add : The Cherrypicker's Guide only includes about 5% of all known die varieties - it's more of a "best of" book than an attribution guide. Please - PLEASE don't ever question the existence of something just because they didn't list it.
