1903 Indian Head Cent - surprise snow variety after purchase!

A 1903 IHC came in the mail today and I was surprised to discover that it's a RPD! It looks to be a Snow-7 variety (FS-01-1903-303).

Take a look and tell me your thoughts and opinions on grade as well.

I don't see an RPD but I'll take your word for it. Nice find.

I don't see the RPD....unless it is on the "1" top and west.

Yes, it's on the '1' to the top NE side and bottom W side. Also a die crack on reverse from denticles to the lower most leaf at bottom left side. Snow-7a variety... so I've been told, lol.

AU55. The RPD is visible but very minor in nature. It's not something I would pay a premium to get though I would try to find a "live one" if selling it.

Here is my original photo that I took the other day before my new lighting setup arrived. This photo does not depict the color/surface very well, but it does show the RPD better. The RPD jumps out under glass... so it's not weak at all.

Must be the week of the RPD Indian cents. I picked up a MS64BR 1891 that was the S-3 variety unattributed on the holder.

Still not seeing it. But I'm glad you are happy!

Edit: Made my post before the updated pictures. I can see it with the new pictures.
