    Follow the line in his jawbone to the left and there is a D

    If this coin is newer than 1981 and I believe it is then what you are seeing may be zinc rot.on the copper
    plated zinc coins the zinc will start to rot under the copper plating and swell the copper up into all kinds of
    different shapes. I think I can even see some of the zinc rot in the center of what you think may be a D.

    Thanks I thought that could have been a possibility because it seemed to be a silver color in the middle of the D thanks for the input.
