Strange-Raised-Mark-On-Half-Penny1944 half penny and it seems to have squiggle like the squiggle on the obverse but it is between the G of George and his neck, it is raised. Any ideas what it might be?

May be a damaged die. A shallow piece of metal may have spalled off the die.
The die would have looked like it had a shallow depression in that area.

Thanks Sel_691. Is it considered an error coin does anyone know? I suppose We all like to think among our collections we have oddities :)

IF I am right, such die damage would result most certainly in an error.
