1984 D Penny mm question

Hi I have a 1984D penny with an odd mark on its side, probably PMD but I want to make sure. Thank you everyone.

@Laurie B your photos are too blurry to really tell what is going on. If the area in question is raised, then it could be an internal die break, causing a die chip. If you don't see any metal pushed up around the area, which would mean it is most likely just damage, then the chances are it's a die chip. Better photos will bring more, and maybe better, answers. Also, remember it is a zinc coin, so we have the possibility of it being a bubble and/or zinc rot.

 

I will have my son take better pictures for me. You know me I question everything lol.

 

I looked at this even closer than before it looks like metal to me.

 

Keep in mind that it is struck on a Copper Plated Zinc planchet. It is probably a Plating bubble/blister.

 

Thanks so much I will put it in my spend pile.

 

The mint mark looks a bit low but that’s not a big deal. The raised area to the left of the mint mark is a plating blister.
