A little stumped on this one, appears to be RPM #5 and has the die markers on the obverse but the die scratches on the reverse seem to be going in the opposite direction. Could the reverse die have been swapped out at some point?
The mintmark placement does not lead me to believe this is RPM-004. It appears from your photos that your specimen is too far west, but that could be just from the angle the photo was taken.
As far as the reverse die being changed, that could indeed happen at any time. Having checked what I could, there is no documented cases of the reverse die being changed on this variety.
