I have this 1970 D Jefferson nickel with a weird blob next to the mint mark, and I was wondering what caused this. I don't believe it is a RPM, but I'm not even close to being an expert. As always, thank you for the help!

That's Die Deterioration Doubling, caused by a worn die.

I agree with Die Deterioration. It does look odd, though.

I would be very impressed if that is really a 1970 D Nickel.

Are you sure that's a 1970-D?

Anyway, looks like DDD.

Definitely Die Deterioration Doubling.

Did you mean 1960-D? 1970 nickels did not have mintmarks on the reverse.
