    Hey Chris, welcome to CT. No need to do a poll. Also usually easier to post the photo directly. I think it is damage. Any marks on the other side?

    Ty for info it just looked like something odd like a broken leg crazy how damage can make something look so normal in this field or a error still so exciting

    Welcome to CT. Can I recommend that a good starting point for you is to read and learn about the minting process and how dies are made.
    There are limited ways that an error or variety can be produced. But, there are countless ways for a coin to be environmentally and physically damaged.
    The following link is to a site with some good information, read all the sections.
