New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
This is an example of K.12-M, which is an R.4 variety. Kranky had the obverse attribution correct, but the reverse is M (only used on 2 die marriages). The other use of reverse M is on 19-M, which is an R.7 variety, so my heart was beating rapidly until I attributed the obverse.
Very nice Fugio and, as I recall, you bought it cheap. Congratulations!

Okay, then I have a great idea: Sell me the Fugio that you bought on eBay for nice, big fat $20 profit. That will help to finance the purchase of the 12-M that you posted here. Did I mention that K.12-M is an ultra rare R.8 variety???

If I end up buying this one, I'll be happy to sell you the other at my cost.
