It is the same screw as a wheel opening molding screw of the same vintage.

Sure its not a rivet.
1968 is a screw ( about a #8 oval head ) , 1969 is a rivet

Yes, it's a screw. I pulled them out a couple decades ago and they have been lost. A #8 screw fits the hole in the quarter panel, can't remember if it was an oval head or panhead screw.

When the car has M31 belt line mounding there is a rivet there. When the trim ends at the corner like in the picture, a screw goes there.

Looking at 1970 Plymouths on this info.

My 70 GTX has a 1969 and older type of stainless wheel well trim screw in that position. The 70 WW trim screw is different head and not stainless.

I just pulled the upper belt mouldings off a 1968 Charger , it had a screw.
Same trip I pulled he upper belt mouldings off a 1970 Charger,,,it had a rivet. Just did this this past Saturday morning
( I needed the mouldings themselves )

Interesting on the 68 Charger screw. I was referring to 1970 non Charger cars like the OP has.

The only time a rivet was used was on Chargers or other B bodies that had the full upper belt molding option

Does anyone have 2 spare stainless '69 screws? PM me if you do.
Thanks
