Sheesh. There was no question about the coin just the photo. What's so hard about this question?
The bottom of the "D" is missing. Likely a debris filled die.
The rim looks pretty torn up by some event and I suspect what you see is displaced metal from the rim damage. No error I can see. JMHO.
Die dents?
What you are seeing in the fields (background) could be feeder finger scrapes.
Yes to a die chip.
