Can you tell me what happened to the bottom of the U in Trust. It's raised metal just in this spot on this 1961 D Lincoln.

To me, it looks slightly flattened due to mechanical damage. I don't think that it is a doubled die or die chip.

Just a well placed hit from PMD. I also see Die Deterioration Doubling as well.

I think it's a circulation hit as well.

That's what I guessed it might be. It's still difficult to see these kinds of things when the areas around seem to be unaffected. Sooo, that's why I asked my expert friends.

When you see metal movement it is damage.
