It's an "S" mint mark. This is an impaired proof nickel. If you were wondering if it's RPM, there are no listings:

Otherwise I'm not sure what the question is "mint mark is odd"

TJ. Looks like a Type 1 filled S mintmark.

Take a look at the following website with images and description. http://davescoins.net/info/1979varieties.htm

The die is facing some issues with die wear. When you look at the edge of the hair, you see the same thing going on with the mint mark.
