1917 Wheat Cent, T/Y?

So playing around with my microscope, one of the first coins I decided to look at was a 1917 Lincoln Wheat Cent.

Does it appear to have a T over Y? I found that strange and fairly apparent, could just be my eyes and mind wanting to find an error...

PMD

 

Anything is possible! I see a moose's head over the "T" and a lamb's head over the "E".

Sad thing is, I see what you're talking about haha

 

I thought PMD at one point, although not knowing the actual term until now, but was thrown off by the inside angle of the "Y" that I'm seeing and how it's only around the T. I'm assuming if I couldn't find another area of significance it wouldn't be strongly justifiable as anything but PMD?

 

It is PMD, whether it is physical or chemical , maybe emphasized by the lighting. Sorry.

 

Thanks guys!
