I recently found a 1924 S Mercury that looks to be either a RPM or an OMM. I have tried to attach a couple of pictures. Is it or not?

To be honest with you, the condition of the coin is in too lower a grade to make a finally determination of what you have. Since there is no listing for either a RPM or OMM for the 1924-S Flying Liberty dime in the CONECA master files, I would more than likely attribute the mintmark as machine doubling or die deterioration doubling.

I agree, and would think it is from the mint mark getting hammered down during circulation. They distort with circulation as they roll around in change purses or pockets.Originally posted by wavysteps View PostCONECA Member# N-4679

I am talking about the Area to the west of the gap between the bottom curves of the s, not the upper part!Comment

The lower part of the S mintmark is even more worn than the upper part, so it is impossible to make an sort of determination of what that extraneous mark is.
