Was this penny struck with an S over a D? If yes, what is the value? Sorry...I am new to collecting. Thank you in advance for your help!

@mlz, to help learn about mintmark errors, I recommend you spend some time looking at the varietyvista website:

To help figure out what is going on with this mintmark, we will need a nice closeup image as mentioned above. Typically mid-sharpen mint marks are the result of mechanical damage, but there might instead have been a small die chip that caused the letter S to be oddly shaped.

Looks promising as an RPM. Post some clearer close-ups.
