An overlay of what? I see nothing in area suggesting a mint mark. Looks just like a corroded 1909 cent.

Not seeing any S, but it is hard to tell.

Maybe it's an "optional" illusion ?

I think I see what you see but don't think it's a mint mark...next time use paint or some editing program to outline the area in question.
