Similar to a dropped letter error: [URL]https://www.numismaticnews.net/archive/error-finds-include-dropped-letter[/URL] It does look to me like an 8 turned sideways but it's not large enough to be a clog that dropped from the 8 in the date. Unless some of it got lost while being struck into the planchet? Or it could be Babe Ruth signaling for two hamburgers?
