It could be a folded over finned rim. Or simply a small retained struck thru debri. I am hoping it is the latter. Cause thats a nice looking PF.
@Backtomyquarters As far as the grading, I think it would sell better on the secondary market if you get it attributed. Need a photo of the...
Why does Wexler do this? Notice in the description that he lists none for obverse die markers. An easy one is MM placement. MM placement is the...

This is incuse die doubling, a form of MD. Awesome photos by the way.
