These are three different coins (two 1970S, one 1983D)
Could all three of these really be RPMs? I hesitate to believe I'd pull three of them from the same penny box. On top of that, I couldn't find exact matches to any of them in the websites I use as reference material, which makes me even more inclined to think I'm just crazy. Still accumulating practice at getting things identified reliably by myself.. but think I'm getting better.
So I figured I'd just come poke the collective brain here and see what you all think. As always I'd be more than happy to take more pictures if required.

Coin #1, possible secondary S south of primary

Coin #2, possible secondary S south of primary. This one looks the least like an RPM to me; I suspect it is just damage.

Coin #3, possible secondary D southeast of primary

Not sure about the first two, but the 83 is plating issues with some zinc rot going on.
