I was thinking if this possible Mint error or something new with the design..

I cant find any of this designed/error on all five cent. so it might be this is new found coin with such error/designed. what do you think?

Hope someone will chime in to enligthment what the possible wrong with this coin..an expert maybe?

thanks in advance.

Hi, this is fairly common with 5 cent coins over the last ten years, I believe it is an oldish die with a chip out off it.
They minted 120 million 5 cent coins that year so they would have searched the dies as much as they could.
