I'm thinking that it's what's called a spur, as outlined in CandC with some of the cents/minor variety. IMO.

I haven't found any spur examples yet, but will keep looking. I originally thought a partial clip because it was similar to the 1969 cent at this link (without rim damage and the 1962 does have rim damage)...

.... though not convinced and will keep an open mind to all the suggestions. This is the only one I have found.

Steve, I also went through the CandC cent index, it looks to have been removed, there were quite a few year examples of exactly what you've shown and I had put quite a few away last year as a minor variety. Wish I could offer more on this. I'll keep doin more searching on it. Cheers. Jon

Since it only occurs on one face, and since it's so short, it's not an incomplete clip. It's some form of die damage, probably a die dent.
