1958 D with weird anomaly

I have 7 coins that looks like these, can anybody tell me and/or explain to me what these anomalies are under the D mint mark? Please and thanks

Can't quite tell from your pictures. Can you get any closer? Maybe an over mintmark or Repunched mintmark. Very nice looking 58 D's though!

They look like normal uncirculated cents.

 

I looked at the known RPM's at Variety Vista without any close match. Based on the data here, I could see these as a die crack/break which occurred at the serif of the D, a not-unlikely place for one to begin. Perhaps something struck and gouged the die. You could envision getting a few of them from an original roll (or even an entire roll of them), because the die could strike hundreds or thousands after the break occurred.

 

yes i can take closer pic... just ine second

 

hope this helps

 

Now I have to call it a die gouge.

 

thanks.... is it a big deal? or is it pretty common? your should check out my new posting on 2 1956 D shadow D i think i might have. I can really use the help and oppinions thanks

 

Well considering the average die life, and the number of cents struck in Denver that year, and the fact that gouge would only be on a single die, if you had an evenly mixed random bag of mixed 1958 D cents, you could expect to find five of them.

 

I would probably call it a die chip.
Maybe happened during a die polishing.
Nice LDS.
