So at first glance it looks to be a nick or sheer on the N. But when looking closer its just kinda strange. Almost like the top of the N has melted down . I don't know , don't have a lot of experience in error coins nor do I grade coins so never really scrutinized a coin to such degrees . Any info helps.

Would need a close-up but looks like PMD.

These types of PMD coins appear here all the time. I tend to see a lot of these with similar damage involving the date. People have posted coins with the number 1 actually laying sideways.

PS we're in the wrong thread.

Cool - thank you for info. I defer to your experience and will call it a PMD. Just wanted to be sure before I let a legit error coin slip through.
Sorry for wrong posting area !

I believe it is PMD. You can see that the N was originally intact and at some point the N got pushed down or did some other melting action. It is evident by the dark spot in place of where the N should be.
