LOL, wow, my uncle clearly spent a lot of time looking closely at coins without the benefit of a computer or digital microscope. I couldn't figure this out until I went for the obvious and sure enough, a fang on Washington.

I believe this is due to die wear where you end up with a blob on the coin? And I gather that the Red Book would call this Defective Die

It could be a very small die chip.

Although difficult to see from the pic being too dark around the Lips ,I agree with Coop that would be the best possible scenario, a small die chip.
