1984 D Jefferson, with an S in front of his head...?

Hey guys I have a 1984 D Jefferson here and he looks to have an S on the obverse where it shouldn’t be. I was thinking maybe a die clash but I don’t see an s that would line up in that spot. Maybe a misplaced S mint mark...? That would be awesome lol.

Interesting don't think its a dropped letter my best is to say man made/counterstamp etc- damage,better pictures would help.

 

Looks like an engraving toolbit on a Dremel skipped and bounced a bit, and then someone rubbed it to try and dull it down and failed

 

To me it looks to be a spot of solder. Definitely not an S or any other letter.

 

To me, it looks like pareidolia in the form of a baby King Cobra.

 

I pulled this coin from a set so unless someone from the mint did that to the coin it’s not man made.

 

It could have been switched in the set. Who knows. Midnight minter is possible, I guess.

 

Can you show the set you pulled it from?

 

Are you sure it was a mint set and not an aftermarket set of some kind? It looks a bit beat up for a mint set coin.
