Your coin is damaged, nothing more. It’s is either replated with zinc or more than likely, the copper plating was removed. It did not leave the mint like this. The anomaly you see next the date is just corrosion. It cannot be a displaced MM because the mint quit adding the MM by hand in 1989 or 1990 (I can never remember which year). The MM is now on the hub, so all dies will show the mm in the same location.

WOW! I Apologize for that one.I blew up this enlargement another 400x and between the cobwebs in my eyes and the graininess that caused, I THOUGHT I saw that MM .Seems it was a debris field left from whatever damaged the 9 practically sheared it off and wadded it up like spaghetti. Sorry VV, it was not a Displaced mint mark "S"as I had earlier thought.but damage to the date as hoop and frog explained. Sorry merely human (and half blind) View attachment 861219
