Here are some Roosevelts from the 1955 Mint Set I got last summer. IMO the D mint and the S mint Roosies for the most part were mehh kind of coins so they are not shown. However I have included the reverses from the two S mints as it appears the mintmarks are different. I am not a variety kind of a person, could someone that knows about varieties please tell me about these? The images are by Bob Campbell and I think he did an excellent job.

Those appear to be 2 different style minmarks. One is a Ball tail and the other is a Trumpet tail.
Jesbroken - Your first one appears to have repunching, but can't really tell from the pic.
2 trumpets aka serif S. perhaps a tall S. same style though.
we could call 1 of them blob trumpet due to die chips inside the mm.
