    I would like confirmation if this would be considered a die chip or perhaps a unique variety Lincoln apparently has an eye brow. Thanks!

    Based on the first photo, it appears
    to be a 'hit' and not a die chip.

    Another photo or two, maybe a bit
    farther away, would show something else,
    but I believe I can see moved metal,
    which would be from contact, not a die chip.

    This photo is better. Needed to manipulate the light a bit to see shadows.

    If the entire spot is raised above the surface, it's likely to be a die chip. If some or all of it is indented, then took a hit and is PMD.

    BTW: Even if it's a die chip, it doesn't carry any premium over face value, but still a cool find

    A bit better photo - but it still looks
    like a contact mark.

    No premium even if it is a die chip.
