Not a D mint mark as mentioned, it is a Philly minted coin. It is a nice die crack,I mean die chip, and I see no zinc rot on the chip. And pretty sure it is not zinc rot by LIBERTY either.

I do not think that is a zinc bubble below the date but a rather nice chip for someone to become familiar with. Nice die chip!

If we all worked for the mint, the place would manage to produce maybe one coin per year, but it would be one great coin!

Great! We like that.

Now bubble burst time...
Unfortunately none of the above would bring a premium to its value. Even if it is a die chip
(a legit error the rest mentioned are just damaged coins) the die chip has to be a lot larger for there to be interest in the hobby to collect it to the point of paying over face value.

Sorry :(

I admit I do not.

But I also don't work for a meteorologist, but do pretty well at knowing when its raining snowing, or sunny out.

I am also not certified, but am definitely a professional at converting atmospheric gases to carbon dioxide...just part of my nature I guess. I do expect one day I will abandon the practice though.
