Looks more like a die chip. It's an interesting spot for a die chip though.
Rest in Peace

It may be a die chip but I'm leaning more towards damage.

Not a doubled ear, at any rate.

It's not a doubled earlobe. Check the resources that @Tootallious linked to for things like that. I don't think it is a die chip, either. It may be damage, but it doesn't look quite right to me.

What it looks most like to me is a folded over lamination peel. There is a depression on the lobe that seems to fairly match the anomaly below it. I'm thinking it lifted and folded over in a southward direction.

Good eye spruett001! I now see that as well. And it certainly does look like they match!

What do you think about it? Is it interesting enough to keep? It's just a cent, after all.
