    If you want to get responses to posts generally you should post clear large pictures of both sides of the coin that fill the image (see the image i attached) then describe what you think might be the error and any additional photos of it (see pic #2). I hope this helps.

    In the first picture you can see the DDO doubling of the letters and numbers due to zooming in and clarity. Pictures are the key for good opinions here.

    First find out if you actually have a Mint Error or not... About 90% of coins posted here on CoinTalk from new error searchers are not errors.
    Value and if it's worth selling should be your last concern.

    Probably circulation hit.
    We call it Pareidolia. Looks like a numeral but it is actually not.

    we really do not know without clear pictures of the entire front and back, plus a nice description of what you are observing.

    but normally, PMD (Post Mint Damage) is not worth anything.

    Um, no!

    Definition of apophenia


    : the tendency to perceive a connection or meaningful pattern between unrelated or random things (such as objects or ideas)What psychologists call apophenia—the human tendency to see connections and patterns that are not really there—gives rise to conspiracy theories.
