    Both of these images are from Variety Vista, which can be found here-http://www.varietyvista.com/

    This is the best site I've found for 20th century die varieties, especially doubled dies. I've been a member there since 1990.

    I think it's for weight varieties.

    It is the abbreviation for weight and there is a listing for their varieties. :)

    With the new photos, I see what you are seeing, but the S is too small to be a mint mark, or a dropped letter, not that it could be, so I guess we both have pareidolia. LOL

    When I look at your photos with the circles and arrows :) I can see it, but not in the others. Wrong size anyway, possibly an optical illusion?

    So here is what I learned and gathered about everybody's opinion.
    Most agree that it is not the famous D over S because in that error the D dominates and in my photos the S dominates.
    It's not two mint marks because the S is too small to be a second mint mark.

    Some think it may be considered a variety OMM rather than an error.
    Perhaps it could be something but just not sure what!

    Does that sound about right?

    Looking at your photos I would agree with those who said neither is an OMM. Just as Paddyman98 indicated. IMO, Jim
