How can you tell this over a regular 1938-D coin ? I've seen a number of pictures on different web sites but I couldn't really tell. By chance is there more than one variety ?

A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

Yes, there are multiple varieties.
It is assumed that the over-mintmarking was deliberate, as it was known that the Jefferson design would be replacing the Indian design very soon, but Denver needed to make some nickels and the Philadelphia Mint’s die shop happened to have some dies sitting around that had already been punched with S’s, so why not just over-mint mark them?

Thank you. My wife was able to print a copy of this.
One of the coolest OMM's available to the collector on a budget.

Anyone know which is the scarcest of the five?

The 38 buffalo omm's would make for a nice sub set, just saying 😉
I presume that you mean the Buffalo OMM's as seen in the images above?
I've got a set going of all the regular issue '13s along with my FS-513 '38-D, a NGC graded MS65+. NGC undergraded it, in my opinion. I think it's MS 67, a superb gem. Seven pieces total when I complete it. Just need to pick up a '13-D Type 1 for my "First and Last of the Indian Nickels" set. I did find a beautifully toned '13-D Type 1, NGC MS67 but it's way out of my league of affordability though at $2000.
